Noise level areas describe a noise exposure situation based on a noise indicator or area affected by noise. They are mainly used for the preparation of strategic noise maps pursuant to Article R.572-5 of the Environmental Code.
__Origin__
The noise levels emitted by a given infrastructure during an average day are evaluated using numerical models producing isophone curves translated into noise zones, according to the index recommended for all modes of transport at European level, namely the Lden index and the Ln index. The isophone curves, described by the resource N_BRUIT_ISOPHONE_L, are thus used to delimit the external and, where appropriate, internal boundaries of noise zones by ranges of d' indices.
