Revision as of 14:41, 15 February 2022
The calculations for the Traffic Noise Overlay follow the standard rekenmethode 1 (SRM 1), as described on http://wetten.overheid.nl/BWBR0031722/2015-07-01#BijlageIII:
LAeq = E + Co + Cr - Da - Dl - Db - Dm
where:
- LAeq: equivalent noise level (dB(A))
- E: emission
- Co: acceleration term (default = XXX dB(A))
- Cr: reflection term (omitted)
- Da: distance reduction
- Dl: air reduction (default = XXX dB(A))
- Db: surface reduction (default = XXX dB(A))
- Dm: meteorological reduction (default = XXX dB(A))
Default values are taken from InfoMil [1]
Emission
Emission is computed as:
E = 10 * log(10^(Elv/10)+10^(Emv/10)+10^(Ezv/10)
Per vehicle category, the emission is computed as:
Em = am + bm * log(m/v0) + 10 * log(Q/vm)+Cw;m
and
Cw;m = σm + τm x log(vm/v0,m)
where:
- m: vehicle category (light weihgt, medium weight and heavy)
- a and b: factors to be found at InfoMil [2]
- Cw = road surface correction
- σ = correction factor at reference traffic speed
- τ = correction factor per 10 km/hour deviation from reference traffic speed
Distance reduction
Distance reduction is computed as:
Da = 10 * log(r)
where:
- Da: distance reduction
- r: shortest distance between the source and point of evaluation
Notes
- Because a boolean (such as BUSES_ACTIVE), is represented as a 1 or a 0, having a traffic type active makes the total amount of that traffic type equal to the defined traffic amount, while having that traffic type inactive multiples any possible value with 0, resulting in 0 vehicles being counted for that traffic type.
- If the traffic amount is defined as a single value, that value is used for all defined hours. However, if the amount if an array of values, each of the 24 indexes of that array are assumed to correspond to the hour denoted by those indexes, and as such that specific value from the array is used.
