Kuopio workshop report

The report about the workshop, including outcomes, experiences, lessons learned, problems faced, development needs identified etc., will be written here. An intermediate report will be prepared for presentation at the SP1 meeting on 20 March and the final report will be prepared in the end of the workshop and presented at SP4 workshop in April.

Testing of Intarese methods and tools in noise policy case

File:Noise sleepdisturbance Schiphol assessment.jpg

The noise policy case in the Schiphol assessment (see figure) tests and applies the selected Intarese methods and tools (see table). We start with the green and yellow variables, since there are data available. For each variable we describe the methods and tools needed and give an example/application of available methods and tools in the noise policy case.

Noise levels: Application in noise policy case

Original variable: Noise levels

Methods and tools needed

Development of noise level indicator

Methods and tools available:

• WHO indicator development methodology
  • Application in case:
  • Input to method:
  • Output of method: Noise level indicator

Noise exposure to certain noise levels: Application in noise policy case

Original variable: Noise exposure
