Aircraft noise assessment calculations around an airport are presented. Zuid-Limburg airport and its surrounding areas are projected onto a flat reference surface, on which a 100 m mesh network of points is superimposed. Minimum distances between flight paths and points, maximum noise levels of aircraft per category, and lateral correction factors are determined. Using these data, the number of flight motions, and night penalty factors of aircraft per category, the noise assessment is calculated in cost units with a logarithmic aircraft noise pollution formula. Interpolation between points of equal assessment, noise assessment contours and areas within them are mapped.
