| Abstract: | A major source of noise in an urban agglomeration is the road traffic. In order to analyze the effect of the noise on the
population, the local authorities need noise maps, created depending by each major noise source. Data necessary for estimate the
noise generated by the road traffic are: vehicle numbers and vehicle speed, by category, and data related to the road segment: traffic
flow, road surface construction and gradient. The final result – noise map – is strongly influenced by the accuracy of input data. This
paper presents a method for road noise mapping, from the beginning (data acquisition) to the end (printing and evaluation of
population exposure), an original approach that gives accurate results. |
