3-year noise monitoring and strategic noise mapping in an extended motorway
Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2019It is well known that the quality of the acoustic environment is very often degraded by major environmental interventions such as extended motorways. Considering this, the European Union has imposed relevant legislation on its member states to monitor these environmental changes/interventions and to develop strategic noise maps and action plans, in ...

The strategic noise mapping process of the EU has now been ongoing for more than ten years. However, despite the fact that a significant volume of research has been conducted on the process and related issues there has been little change or innovation in how relevant authorities and policymakers are conducting the process since its inception.

Annoyance Analysis of Population Affected By Railway Noise—EU Strategic Noise Mapping
Epidemiology, 2007Introduction: The EU member states are obliged to elaborate Strategic noise maps (SNM) till June 2007. This duty was given them by the Directive 2002/49/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 June 2002 relating to the assessment and management of environmental noise.

Strategic Noise Mapping of the City of Ljubljana, Slovenia
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2008Currently Ljubljana is the only agglomeration according to the definition of the directive 2002/49/EC in Slovenia. For this agglomeration, separate noise maps not only for road and rail traffic but also for industrial sources were made. As for the first phase of preparation there is no precise methodology stated for representing industrial noise ...

Rail freight transport has grown worldwide and in Brazil as well, which increases people's exposure to railway noise. A promising tool to manage it is Strategic Noise Mapping (SNM), which has advanced around the world favoring a common and more accurate calculation method that requires more accurate measurements.

From strategic noise maps to action plan: Perspective of Spanish main roads
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2008The Direccion General de Carreteras of the Spanish Ministry of Transport is finishing the process of Strategic Noise Mapping of Spanish major roads (EGRA). The whole National road network that has been noise mapped for the first END has a length of 6.400 km round.

Evaluating noise abatement measures using strategic noise maps
2006Noise annoyance due to transportation is widespread in industrialized countries and in urban areas in the developing countries. The European Noise Directive (END) requires an assessment of the noise situation as well as the formulation of action plans for the reduction of the number of people harmfully affected by environmental noise.

Soundscapes, social media, and big data: The next step in strategic noise mapping
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2017The current state-of-the art in noise assessment involves the development of a strategic noise map to identify areas with excessive noise levels, expressed in terms of a single time-averaged noise indicator. While noise maps yield important information regarding sound pressure levels in a particular space, they do not give any representation of the ...

With the proclamation of the Directive on Environmental Noise (2002/49), the process of noise mapping and action planning has begun around Europe. Large scale wide area noise modelling requires an extensive range of data inputs. The requirements for these inputs are driven by several factors, including the noise calculation methodologies, noise mapping

A Loosely-Coupled Platform for Urban Traffic Strategic Noise Mapping
2012Excessive traffic noise is a major environmental complaint in residential areas. This paper investigates an SOA based loosely-coupled platform for urban traffic strategic noise mapping. Service-Oriented Computing Environment (SORCER) is employed to build the highly flexible distributed platform.
