Noise - Road Traffic Lden (AI Prediction) - Germany, 2017

This dataset includes a road traffic noise estimation using ensemble learning and multimodal geodata. The official noise indicator, Lden (Day-Evening-Night Level), mapped according to the European Noise Directive (2002/49/EC) for large urban agglomerations is extrapolated to suburban areas and beyond. This novel information closes previous data gaps and is herewith available for environmental noise assessments evaluating the impact of road traffic noise on human health and well-being at a spatial resolution of 10 x 10m nation-wide.
