Strategic noise maps for the Haute-Saône department in France, created under the European Directive 2002/49/EC. The dataset, published by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières, defines noise zones bounded by isophone curves for indicators Lden and Ln. It was last updated on March 28, 2019.
Use Cases
- Assessing population exposure to environmental noise based on defined noise indicators Lden and Ln.
- Establishing baselines for traffic management in Urban Travel Plans (UDP) using the noise zone geometries.
- Supplementing Local Planning Plans (LDP) with graphic noise information for zoning decisions.
- Analyzing noise pollution patterns in Haute-Saône using the type C (CBSTYPE) map classification.
Strengths
- Data is structured according to the harmonized European Directive 2002/49/EC.
- Noise zones are defined by specific isophone curve boundaries (e.g., Lden > 68 or 73).
- Published by a recognized geological and mining research organization (BRGM).
Limitations
- Last updated 2019-03-28 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count and file size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
