In accordance with European legislation, the Environment Agency has updated the strategic noise maps for the fourth cycle of Directive 2002/49/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 June 2002 relating to the assessment and management of environmental noise. These maps refer to the year 2021 and indicate, with the help of a standardised colour scale using the Lngt indicator, the exposure to ambient noise in decibels of the major airports per year located on the territory of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg. The indicators used to describe the annoyance caused by exposure to noise are : Lden in decibels (dB), a representative average noise indicator for a 24-hour day, evaluated over a full year and for which the evening period is penalised by 5 dB(A) and the night period is penalised by 10 dB(A); and the Lnight in decibels (dB), a representative average noise indicator for an 8-hour night, assessed over a full year and associated with sleep disturbance. The indicators are based on three periods of the day: a day" period of 12 hours (7am to 7pm), an "evening" period of 4 hours (7pm to 11pm) and a "night" period of 8 hours (11pm to 7am)." https://environnement.public.lu/fr/loft/bruit/valeurs-limites-bruit.html

When drawing up the strategic noise maps for the fourth round of Directive 2002/49/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 25 June 2002 relating to the assessment and management of environmental noise, the Environmental Administration also took a closer look at the impact of Touch & Go flights. These maps refer to the year 2021 and show the exposure to aircraft noise during the night period in decibels per year using the Lngt indicator.

Noise map of the major airports of more than 50'000 movements per year. This map is representative for the year 2016 and is using the noise index LDEN. This noise map has been elaborated in the context of the DIRECTIVE 2002/49/EC OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 25 June 2002 relating to the assessment and management of environmental noise, transposed into national law by the loi du 2 août 2006 modifiant la loi modifiée du 21 juin 1976 relative à la lutte contre le bruit and the règlement grand-ducal du 2 août 2006 portant application de la directive 2002/49/CE relative à l'évaluation et à la gestion du bruit dans l'environnement.
