  1. 1. Road traffic noise simulations based on 3D city models

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

    Author : Wenjing Liu; [2023]
    Keywords : 3D city model; 3CIM; CNOSSOS-EU; noise simulation; city noise evaluation; data tailor; FME; SoundPLAN; Geomatics; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Urban development and densification cause noise problems that can have a negative impact on human health. In 2002, the European Union (EU) stated the European Noise Directive (END) with the purpose to evaluate environmental noise levels (including the sources road, railway, and air traffic) in the member states every 5 years.

  4. 4. Digitizing and Mapping Channel Heads Across Various Forested Regions in Sweden Using a High-Resolution DEM : A Regional Analysis of How Landscape Properties Influencing Channel Head Initiation

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Amanda Jarefjäll; [2021]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Acting as a hydrological link between the terrestrial landscape and the larger downstream river network, channel heads and their immediate headwaters are essential geomorphological features in our landscape. Not only due to their ability to transport water and sediment and cycling of nutrients, but as an important component for ecosystem productivity and aquatic habitats. READ MORE

  5. 5. Assessment of Urban Sprawl in Mowe/Ibafo Axis of Ogun State using GIS Capabilities
