1 29 November 2012, Madrid Speaking the same language on noise exposure in Europe: the outcome of phase A of CNOSSOS-EU process Stylianos Kephalopoulos 1 and Marco Paviotti 2 1 European Commission, Joint Research Centre 2 European Commission, DG ENV Joint Research Centre The European Commission s in-house science service
2 The reasons behind CNOSSOS-EU 2
3 Common noise assessment methods are foreseen by the END In article 6 of the Directive it is stated that: common assessment methods for the determination of L den and L night shall be established by the Commission in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 13(2) [regulatory committee] through a revision of Annex II. for ensuring consistency for noise exposure data among Europe to achieve accuracy, precision and credibility of the assessment performed throughout the EU and in the estimation of the population exposure 3
4 Common noise assessment methods are needed! (1/2) 1. Outcome of exercise on equivalency conducted by DG JRC (2008) Concerning the compliance of the EU MS to Art. 6 of the Environmental Noise Directive (END): 7 MS were assessed to be compliant with Art. 6 of the END for all noise assessment methods used 5 MS were assessed to be non-compliant with Art. 6 of the END for at least one noise assessment method For 15 MS it was impossible to determine their compliance with Art. 6 of the END for at least one noise assessment method because they did not provide enough information to allow assessing whether their national methods are equivalent to the interim ones. 4
5 Common noise assessment methods are needed! (2/2) 2. Analysis of 1 st round SNM data show possible inconsistencies INPUT DATA: Definition of agglomerations Definition of relevant year for data collection Quality of geographical and topographical data Availability of meteorological data Quality and extent of noise source data Quality of demographic data ASSESSMENT METHODS: Methods of assigning noise levels to buildings Noise calculation methods SOFTWARE: Software implementations for existing noise calculation method END USERS: Software settings 5

16 CNOSSOS-EU (phase A) Final Event 16 July 2012, Bruxelles Joint Research Centre The European Commission s in-house scientific service Serving society Stimulating innovation Supporting legislation JRC website 16
17 Contributors to CNOSSOS-EU (Phase A) More than 150 noise experts from the EU MS, European Agencies, EEA, WHO, NGOs and European Commission Services have been involved and contributed to the CNOSSOS-EU process so far 17
18 CNOSSOS-EU: Quality Framework How accurate does the assessment need to be? So: which input parameters do we have to collect and with which accuracy in order to achieve the accuracy of the total assessment? So: how much effort is involved and is that worth the trouble? Can we simplify and where? 18
19 CNOSSOS-EU: Quality Framework Scope of noise mapping - develop a consistent method of assessment capable of providing comparable results from the strategic noise mapping carried out by EU Member States to fulfil their obligations under the END - definition of noise sources and identification of essential parameters in relation to propagation and exposure assessment requirements Database process the process of developing and the QA of the CNOSSOS-EU databases of input parameters Simplifications and overall accuracy of the system balancing over a number of criteria: precision, accuracy, reproducibility, comparability, equivalency, plausibility, consistency, quality, representativeness, cost 19
20 CNOSSOS-EU: Road traffic noise source emission 1. Frequency distribution 1/3 octave or 1/1 octave band? At which stage to introduce spectra distribution 2. Number of vehicle classes and associated parameters Description of the classes Vehicle flow per time period and per category of vehicle Speed per category of vehicle 3. Number and location of equivalent sources 4. Number of line sources 5. Emission data and road surface correction data How to derive values and translate existing national data Age effect of road surface 6. Other parameters and model settings Acceleration & road gradients Regional corrections Source directivity 20
21 CNOSSOS-EU: Railway traffic noise source emission Model flexibility to further expand and/or enhance specific railway noise sources Inclusion/exclusion of station and depot noise Degree of complexity versus accuracy of the assessment and level of computational time Possible simplifications to be adopted for allowing the CNOSSOS-EU methodological framework to be applied for strategic noise mapping as first priority Input data availability and quality requirements across the EU MS Definition and handling of default values for railway noise sources Methodology for setting up a database of input values for railway noise 21
22 CNOSSOS-EU: Railway traffic noise source emission Classification of trains Inclusion of trams and light railways Classification of tracks Minimum speed Rolling noise Squeal noise Braking noise, traction noise Impact noise Aerodynamic noise Conversion of national databases into CNOSSOS-EU compatible format Other parameters and model settings 22
23 CNOSSOS-EU: Sound propagation and industrial noise Number of reflections 1/3 octave band or 1/1 octave band? Complexity of terrain configuration to be taken into account by the model Clarification on the non-coherent methodology used Directivity requirements for interfacing the source parts Model flexibility to further expand and/or enhance Degree of complexity versus accuracy of the assessment and computational time Possible simplifications to be adopted for the industrial noise source emission and sound propagation parts to allow for the application of the CNOSSOS-EU methodological framework in strategic noise mapping as first priority 23
24 CNOSSOS-EU: Sound propagation and industrial noise Input data availability and quality requirements across the EU MS Definition and handling of default values for industrial noise emission source and sound propagation Methodology for setting up a database of input values for industrial noise emission source Elements/inputs to be handled by CNOSSOS-EU WG6 on Good practice guidelines which should be fixed within the CNOSSOS-EU methodology boundaries for consistency and completeness. 24
25 CNOSSOS-EU: Sound propagation and industrial noise The selection of the sound propagation part Considering a cost-benefit based evaluation of the three methods qualified (i.e., HARMONOISE P2P Version 2.020, NMPB 2008, ISO ) evaluated across the six indicators/criteria (precision, accuracy, computational speed, flexibility, simplicity and number of parameters) and on the basis of a limited set of ideal and real test cases, a good compromise for efficiently employing an assessment method for strategic noise mapping purposes is to use NMPB 2008 as the propagation part of the CNOSSOS-EU framework. However, the performance of this module should be thoroughly tested and validated in the context of Phase B of the CNOSSOS-EU roadmap, especially in relation to accuracy requirements. 25
26 CNOSSOS-EU: Aircraft noise prediction Clarification of the aerodromes and airports covered by the Directive (Article 3 item (p)) Fixed-wing aircraft noise calculation methodology and noise performance database General aviation noise and performance database Rotary aircraft (helicopter) noise calculation methodology and noise performance Military aircraft noise calculation methodology and noise & performance database Definition of fixed-wing aircraft ground noise Ground noise calculation methodology Ground noise and performance database Average meteo conditions for day, evening & night periods 26
27 CNOSSOS-EU: Aircraft noise prediction Two previous candidate methodologies and databases reviewed: - AzB 2008 and database - ECAC Doc rd Edition and ICAO ANP database Both models have their strengths and weaknesses Methodology needs to be aligned with Directive 2002/30/EC, requires assessment of detailed fleet changes and noise abatement procedures AzB database could be developed in time to meet needs of 2002/30/EC, but not within the CNOSSOS-EU (phase A) timescale ECAC Doc. 29 3rd Edition is consistent with ICAO Doc As an agency of the Commission, EASA will use the CNOSSOS-EU methodology for European regulatory impact assessment, e.g. changes to ICAO noise standards. There is therefore a need to ensure the CNOSSOS-EU method is aligned with the ICAO method. Annex II Recommendation: ECAC Doc. 29 3rd Edition, 2005 and the ICAO ANP database version 2,
28 CNOSSOS-EU: Aircraft noise prediction It is recognised the insufficient coverage in ICAO ANP database It is recommended that the AzB 2008 general aviation noise and performance data is used to supplement the ICAO ANP database Data will need to be converted into the ANP database format 28
29 CNOSSOS-EU: Assigning noise levels and population to buildings 6 m 4 m 6 m 1. The definition of population, buildings and dwellings, the residential use and the meaning of a façade was clarified and fixed 8 m 1 m + 1,4 m + 2 m + 1,4 m + 1 m 8m 2. For strategic noise mapping purposes, the main target for population assignment is buildings for "residential use 6 m = 6,8 m 6 m 3. If a detailed distribution of population over the dwelling units of a building is available, this is recommended to be used 4. For strategic noise mapping purposes, the equal distribution principle is recommended to be used instead of the most exposed façade 5. For action planning purposes, the significant seasonal variability of population is recommended to be taken into account (e.g., tourist places during summer) it is recommended to use more detailed information on real distribution of people in dwellings and possibly also heights other than 4 m above ground 29
30 CNOSSOS-EU: Good practice guidelines Resolution 1: The aim of the CNOSSOS-EU guidelines is two-fold: To provide mandatory guidance for the application of CNOSSOS-EU for strategic noise mapping; and To provide guidance, advice and shared best practice for the application of CNOSSOS-EU for noise action planning. 30
31 CNOSSOS-EU: Good practice guidelines Resolution 2: The content of the CNOSSOS-EU guidelines: Should cover the complete process of strategic noise mapping, from defining agglomerations and major sources, through to reporting results; Should indicate the impact of differences in quality of input data; Should provide instructions on the evaluation of emission data: how to import national databases into CNOSSOS-EU how to introduce new data Should be flexible to accommodate local and regional variations (complex situations such as valley zones); and Will need to be managed, updated and extended as necessary as application, experience and expertise in CNOSSOS-EU grows in the future, potentially under the control of proposed CNOSSOS-EU WG13 (Help desk and training of EU MS). 31
32 CNOSSOS-EU: Good practice guidelines Resolution 3: The end users were identified WHO? National authority Competent authority Technical practitioner Data provider Reporting coordinator at MS towards the EC NEEDS? understand the financial costs, the complexity and the number of organisations within the MS who need to be involved within the process of implementing the directive including transposition coordination, management and production of the result data of strategic noise mapping or action plans run the project (data collection and handling, operating software, operating calculation, producing result files) provide the appropriate input data collect relevant information from the competent authorities 32

JRC Master report on Common Noise Assessment methods in EU (CNOSSOS-EU): outcome and resolutions of the CNOSSOS-EU Technical Committee & Working Groups 41
42 JRC Reference report on CNOSSOS-EU Outcome of Phase A Description of core CNOSSOS-EU framework for strategic noise mapping (July 2012) May be revised during Phase B Complete CNOSSOS-EU framework (2015) Part 1: CNOSSOS-EU for strategic noise mapping (mandatory) Part 2: CNOSSOS-EU for action planning (voluntary) Part 1: Basis for reviewing Annex II of the Noise Directive via European Commission s Implementing Act CNOSSOS-EU fully operational in the EU MS starting from the 3 rd round of strategic noise mapping in Europe (2017) 42
43 CNOSSOS-EU phase B CNOSSOS-EU tools and validation 43
44 Next steps CNOSSOS-EU phase B just started: A call for tender was launched in summer 2012 to cover the implementation aspects that require technical work (development of database for road, railway and industrial noise, open source code, validation, guidelines) COM intends to involve the EU MS in the validation process
45 Next steps Indicative planning: completion of the methodology including databases for road, railway and industrial noise - October 2013 validation and fine tuning (possibly with support of MS) - February 2014 first presentation of a draft revised Annex II February 2014 finalisation of the revised Annex II and implementing decision - June 2014 helpdesk supporting practitioners: from 2014
46 Next steps Validation of CNOSSOS-EU Aimed at: giving the opportunity to the MS to test CNOSSOS-EU against: national methods; national databases; measurements (short & long term) if necessary fine tune the CNOSSOS-EU in line with the discussions of WG1, WG2, WG3, WG4 and WG5 of CNOSSOS-EU if deemed appropriate and necessary (to be discussed with the NRC) develop a set of benchmark test cases to support a quality assurance system for the commercial software implementing CNOSSOS-EU
47 Next steps Possibly performed by means of: Validation of CNOSSOS-EU Collection of test cases in a common fiche proposed by COM on the basis of the technical assistance received by the tender The fiche will require specific and detailed information on the source description And the possible propagation paths that are required to be calculated over a single test case (the open source calculation core will be able to perform point to point calculation over a single propagation path) Are MS willing to support COM in the validation process with their own resources?
