TI  - Strategic mapping of Adelaide CBD
N2  - The Adelaide Central Business District (CBD) has been facing densification due to an increase in the growth of residents and
business in the area. Noise is considered by the residents of the city as one of the major problems impairing the amenity
within the CBD. This has raised multiple concerns such as health and sleep disturbance. Further growth of business activities
and an increase in the number of residents in the city is expected in the coming years. This may lead to increased noise
impact in the Adelaide CBD and adjacent areas. This paper details strategic noise mapping based on predictive modelling
coupled with indications of six noise monitoring stations deployed over a long term period. The noise monitoring stations
were located strategically in the northern part of the Adelaide CBD to capture noise impact from several major noise
sources. This allowed for detailed analysis of noise contribution from various noise sources. Some of the CBD areas
characterised by higher noise levels are targeted for comparison with population exposure descriptors and factors. The
results of this study can be utilised for effective noise management and urban planning decisions to reduce noise impact in
the city
