Goal and impact

The purpose of this calculation programme is to calculate noise using a standard measurement and calculation script. The results can then be used in various ways and by various organisations, as the software works on the basis of current laws and regulations.

Considerations

Use of this calculation programme helps determine noise.

Human intervention

The input (the data collected) is done by humans. The programme calculates with this data and gives an output. This output can then be freely used by different organisations.

Risk management

The calculation programme is managed by supplier DGMR. The calculation programme is checked and adjusted when errors are noticed.

Legal basis

Noise production ceilings roads and industry: Article 2.12a vab the Environment Act.

The European obligation to draw up noise maps and action plans every 5 years has been adopted in Article 3.8 and Article 20.17 of the Environment Act.
