Vienna's road infrastructure noise zoning data, created under the European Directive 2002/49/EC, maps noise-affected sectors for roads with traffic exceeding 3 million vehicles per year. The dataset, produced by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières, covers specific routes including the A10, N10, D1, and several communal routes of the Greater Poitiers area.
Use Cases
- Assessing population exposure to road traffic noise based on noise indicator exceedances mentioned in the description.
- Establishing baselines for urban displacement plans based on the description of noise maps as information documents.
- Identifying target areas for better traffic management as part of a Local Urban Planning Plan (LDP) based on the description.
- Harmonizing noise assessment across member states based on the European Directive 2002/49/EC framework.
Strengths
- Covers roads with traffic exceeding 3 million vehicles per year, a specific threshold.
- Created under the harmonized framework of European Directive 2002/49/EC.
- Includes a defined list of major routes such as A10, N10, D1, and communal routes.
