Development of an open-source road traffic noise model for exposure assessment [PDF]
, 2015 This paper describes the development of a model for assessing TRAffic Noise EXposure (TRANEX) in an open-source geographic information system. Instead of using proprietary software we developed our own model for two main reasons: 1) so that the treatment
