Assessing the exposure of EU citizens to noise requires substantial volumes of data. That is why there is a system, put in place with the aim of monitoring the state of environmental noise throughout the European Union. The Directive on the Assessment and Management of Environmental Noise (END) aims to set up a common approach which assesses the exposure to environmental noise throughout the European Union. Within this context however, it is still di cult to combine and compare data from the 28 EU Member States with their different languages, data infrastructures and modelling approaches. At the same time, recent developments within the context of the Infrastructure for Spatial Information in Europe (INSPIRE) offer a solid foundation for streamlining the exchange and efficient use of noise-related data. This manuscript investigates the potential value added from aligning spatial data and noise maps with INSPIRE. It investigates both the issues of data harmonisation, and the use of interoperable web-based services for accessing spatial data.
