总结:Urbanization and industrialization present significant challenges to public health, particularly in managing environmental noise pollution. This study addresses the critical issue of noise pollution at the study area by developing a comprehensive noise map that encompasses industrial zones, construction sites, and areas with heavy traffic. Utilizing ArcGIS modeling software, the research visualizes the spatial dynamics of noise pollution, resulting in a detailed map that represents noise levels throughout the area. The analysis reveals that noise levels during weekday peak hours average 70.5 dBA, markedly higher than the 65.5 dBA average recorded during weekend peak hours. During weekdays morning peak, noise levels indicate three monitoring points in the red zone, two in the yellow zone, and five in the green zone. Notably, noise levels at all ten monitoring locations during weekdays peak hours exceeded the maximum permissible sound level of 60 dBA set by the Department of Environment for residential and commercial areas. These findings contribute to the development of targeted noise mitigation strategies and serve as a valuable resource for environmental authorities, policymakers, and urban planners. This research underscores the importance of a comprehensive approach to addressing environmental noise pollution and provides a practical framework for urban areas facing similar challenges. © The Authors, published by EDP Sciences.
