Aircraft noise assessment calculations around the Rotterdam airport are presented. The airport and its surroundings 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 calculated. Using this information, the number of flight motions, and night penalty factors of aircraft per category, the noise assessment is determined in cost units with a logarithmic aircraft noise pollution formula. Interpolating between points of equal assessment, noise assessment contours and areas within them are mapped.
