GIS based spatial noise impact analysis (SNIA) of the broadening of national highway in Sikkim Himalayas: a case study

GIS based spatial noise impact analysis (SNIA) of the broadening of national highway in Sikkim Himalayas: a case study

Mountainous areas create a complex and challenging environment to conduct noise impact analysis of development projects. This paper presents a noise impact analysis methodology using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Traffic Noise Model (FHWA TNM 2.5) to portray spatial distribution of noise...
