Abstract
The assessment of aircraft noise is becoming an increasingly important task in ensuring sustainable airport development. Aircraft noise is influenced by many complex factors and traditional laboratory models are not sufficient to assess the exposure to noisy flights of specific local communities in proximity to an airport. In this paper neural network and fuzzy set methods have been integrated with Geographical Information Systems to provide an alternative method to evaluate airport noise.
