Areas Exposed to A10 Motorway Night Noise (Ln) in Deux-Sèvres, France

BUREAU DE RECHERCHES GÉOLOGIQUES ET MINIÈRES provides data on areas exposed to road traffic noise at night (Ln) for the A10 motorway crossing the Deux-Sèvres department in France. The data represents noise exposure using isophone curves in 5 dB(A) steps starting from 50 dB(A), as required by the European Directive on Strategic Noise Maps. The dataset was last updated on April 4, 2019.

Use Cases

• Assess health risks from sleep disruption based on night-time noise levels (Ln).
• Model noise pollution exposure zones based on isophone curves.
• Evaluate compliance with the European Directive on Strategic Noise Maps for land transport infrastructure.
• Plan noise mitigation strategies for areas near the A10 motorway.

Strengths

• Data is structured according to specific EU directive requirements for noise indicators Lden and Ln.
• Noise levels are represented using standardized isophone curves in 5 dB(A) increments.
• The dataset has a clear geographic focus on the A10 motorway in the Deux-Sèvres department.
