All Sources (within agglomerations) Noise Contours Lden Round 1
Data indicating the level of noise according to the strategic noise mapping of consolidated sources (roads, railways, airports and industry) within areas with a population of at least 250,000 people (agglomerations). Lden indicates a 24 hour annual average noise level with separate weightings for the evening and night periods. This data is a product of the strategic noise mapping analysis undertaken to meet the requirements of the Environmental Noise Directive (Directive 2002/49/EC).

Noise level information has been determined by strategic noise mapping using national calculation methods and various input information. The calculations produced noise level results on a 10m grid at a receptor height of 4m above ground, as required by the Environmental Noise Directive and associated Regulations. The consolidated data includes outputs from each of the road, rail, industrial and airport noise grids. The consolidated maps are produced simply as a logarithmic sum of the separate source sound levels and are not subject to response or effects based corrections.
