Abstract
A method for fine-grained traffic noise prediction includes obtaining location data indicating one or more locations and, for each respective location of the one or more locations, location-specific traffic data. The method includes, for each respective location of the one or more locations, using various computational models to predict a vehicle count and a vehicle class mix for the respective location; calculating, based on the predicted vehicle count and the predicted vehicle class mix, a number of vehicles per vehicle class for the respective location; and calculating, based on the number of vehicles per vehicle class, a predicted noise level for the respective location. The method includes causing a client device to display a map. The map may include, for each location of the one or more locations, a visual indication of the predicted noise level for the respective location.
