The European Directive 2002/49/EC on the assessment and management of environmental noise aims at a harmonised assessment of exposure to noise in the Member States. It defines them as representations of data describing a noise situation according to a noise indicator, indicating exceedances of limit values, the number of persons exposed.
Noise maps are not prescriptive.
These are information documents that are not legally enforceable. As graphic elements, however, they can supplement a Local Planning Plan (LDP).
As part of an Urban Travel Plan (UDP), maps can be used to establish baselines and target areas where better traffic management is needed.
