Strategic noise maps for national roads in the Côte d’Or department of France, covering the night period for the second deadline (2012-2017). The dataset was created by the Bureau de Recherches Géologiques et Minières (BRGM) in compliance with European Directive 2002/49/EC and French law. Maps are required for roadways used by more than 8200 vehicles per day.
Use Cases
- Assessing compliance with EU noise regulations based on noise exposure mapping.
- Identifying areas requiring noise mitigation measures based on noise exposure levels.
- Supporting the development of Environmental Noise Prevention Plans (PPBE) based on noise maps.
- Analyzing nighttime noise pollution patterns from national roads.
Strengths
- Created under a specific EU directive (2002/49/EC) and French law, ensuring a standardized methodology.
- Focuses on a defined geographic region (Côte d’Or) and time period (2012-2017).
- Targets infrastructure meeting a specific threshold (roadways with >8200 vehicles/day).
Limitations
- Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
- Last updated 2019-03-29 00:00:00; freshness should be verified.
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
