Faced with the accelerated growth of cities and the consequent increase in the number of motor vehicles, urban noise levels caused by vehicular traffic have increased considerably. To assess noise levels in cities and implement noise control measures or identify the problem’s location in different urban areas, it is necessary to obtain the noise levels to which people are exposed. Noise maps are tools that have applications as they are cartographic representations of the noise level distribution in an area and over a period of time. This article aims to identify, select, evaluate, and synthesize information, through a systematic literature review, on using different road noise prediction models, in sound mapping computer programs in countries that do not have a standard noise prediction model. The analysis period was from 2018 to 2022. From a previous analysis of articles, the choice of topic was based on identifying various models for predicting road noise in countries without a standardized sound mapping model. The papers compiled by a systematic literature review showed that studies concentrated in China, Brazil, and Ecuador, the most used traffic noise prediction models, were the RLS-90 and the NMPB, and the most used mapping programs were SoundPLAN and ArcGIS with a grid size of 10 × 10 m. Most measurements were carried out during a 15-min period at a height from the ground level of 1.5 m. In addition, it was observed that research on noise maps in countries that do not have a local model has been increasing over time.

“…Similarly in Surat, India, traffic noise mapping was conducted using the RLS-90 computer simulation model, integrating noise data, road inventory, geometric features, vehicle volume, speed, and meteorological data. The approach allowed for the incorporation of horn correction values to assess heterogeneous traffic conditions (Sonaviya & Tandel, 2020).…”

The By-Pass Ring Road in Kendari serves as a crucial artery, facilitating accessibility and mobility between the city center and burgeoning outskirts. However, heightened traffic has led to a notable upswing in noise along the highway. This study aims to systematically map the distribution of this noise across various land uses in the vicinity. The findings reveal a vehicular composition predominantly comprised of motorcycles (68%), followed by light vehicles (27%), and heavy vehicles (5%). Notably, although heavy vehicles constitute a mere 5%, they significantly influence the elevation of noise levels. The highest noise intensity impacting land use is observed in service areas, succeeded by commercial and school zones, with the lowest levels recorded in settlement areas. The mapped results depict a noise exposure of 67 dB reaching receptors, coupled with an average noise reduction of 9 dB. Remarkably, as the average distance from the noise source on the highway to the receptors increases (averaging 14 meters), there is a discernible reduction in noise intensity. This visually apparent trend is corroborated by the noise mapping results.

“…Farklı kentlerde yapılan çalışmalar göstermektedir ki kentsel alanlardaki gürültü kirliliğinin en büyük ve en yaygın kaynağı karayolu trafiğidir (Oyedepo ve Saadu, 2010). Artan trafik yoğunluğundan kaynaklanan gürültü kirliliği gelişmiş ve gelişmekte olan ülkelerde insan sağlığı üzerinde de olumsuz etkilere sahiptir (Arana ve ark., 2009;Dal and Yugruk Akdag, 2011;Sonaviya and Tandel, 2020).…”

The increase in the world population and rapid urbanization cause different types of pollution such as air, water, soil and noise. Today, this situation significantly affects the quality of life in densely populated settlements both in the world and in Turkey. Noise pollution, which is one of the important types of pollution, especially in urban areas, is increasing day by day due to anthropogenic effects. Studies conducted by the European Noise Directive (END) show that noise pollution is one of the important factors that cause health problems. Parks are places that allow children trapped in the structural environment in urban life to get to know nature and play games in open spaces. In particular, the children's playgrounds in the parks allow children to play and socialize in the open area and also allow parents to rest. However, park users may be exposed to noise pollution due to high-level noises originating from vehicle traffic, user density, and children's playgrounds in these places. This situation adversely affects the physical and mental health of the park users. The aim of the research is to determine the noise level in children's playgrounds in parks and to develop suggestions for reducing this noise level. As a result of the preliminary studies carried out in this context, Antalya/Kepez Dokuma Park was determined as a research area. Zones were created at certain intervals around the children's playground in the research area. And noise levels were measured on weekdays and weekends from the noise measurement points determined in these zones. The results obtained show that the noise pollution caused by the children's playgrounds in the parks and environmental factors is at a high level. In this context, landscape design and planning proposals have been developed to reduce noise pollution from children's playgrounds and environmental factors.
