Elaboración de un mapa estratégico de contaminación acústica diurno de las plataformas territoriales dos y tres para la zon urbana Sur y Este de la ciudad de Ambato, mediante la utilización de un Sistema de Información Geográfico ArcGis, en acuerdo con el Ilustre Municipio de Ambato

Abstract

The present investigation consists in demonstrating the behavior of an environmental factor that affects the quality of life due to unpleasant sounds that generate discomfort in the inhabitants of the city of Ambato. In this way, environmental authorities aware of this problem, creates a control and evaluation of environmental noise in order to develop strategic maps of daytime noise pollution. The monitoring points were selected based on factors such as: road density, population density and distances from agglomeration areas (Schools, Shopping Centers, Bus Stop, Markets). For this, in the urban area South and East 28 places were delimited distributed in territorial platforms two and three. In this way the noise measurements were executed following the methodology established in ISO 1996-2: 2007 "Acoustics. Description, measurement and evaluation of environmental noise ". In addition, the UTM geographical coordinates and meteorological conditions (temperature, wind speed, pressure, humidity) were recorded for each measurement site. The results were compared to the maximum permissible limits according to the current legislation: Unified Text Reform Secondary Legislation, Environment (TULSMA), demonstrating that 100% of the points do not comply with this norm due to urban development. The acoustic simulation was performed in an ArcGIS geographic information system applying the interpolation model by estimation: Inverse of the Weighted Distance (IDW) that allows to develop a spatial analysis in which the critical points that generate greater noise are evidenced.
