This paper presents a method for calculating the A-weighted sound exposure level of noise generated during passage of a single vehicle. The excess attenuation of an urban area is taken into account. The Ground Area Index is used for urban area description. The results can be used for the approximati

✦ Synopsis
A BSTRA CT Environmental noise measurements hare been carried out during recent years #t different cities and locations of Spain. The noise levels have been conthtuously sampled over 24 h periods using a noise level analyzer. The data contained b7 this paper represent a total of 4200 measurement hours. All the information has been used to investigate the time patterns of the noise levels under a wide range of different conditions and to study the relationships between several noise descriptors #z urban areas.
