However it is unfamiliar and is started to discuss recently in Japan. In this research, a lough road traffic noise map in Shunan city, Japan is tried to illustrate. And then the Japanese potential of novelty road traffic noise evaluation by using noise map and some geographic information database such as hospital, school and population is revealed.", }
