Description :
The paper provides a background sketch to the development of Cape Town International Airport and the noise control framework. It provides a brief overview of noise measurement and the way in which GIS is employed to determine the noise footprint and manifestations of human exposure and also to establish the potential noise exposure of variously defined sensitive land use categories and vulnerable population groups in the noise-affected area. - (AJC)
