This dataset includes a road traffic noise indicator mapped according to the European Noise Directive (2002/49/EC).

The indicator, Lden (Day-Evening-Night Level), describes the equivalent sound pressure level of a 24-hour period, with separate values for daytime, evening, and nighttime periods and is commonly used in environmental noise assessments to evaluate the impact of noise sources on human health and well-being. The input data, simulated noise levels provided as shapefiles by the federal states of Germany, were cleansed and harmonized prior rasterizing them to 10 x 10m.
