本文介绍了 NOISE（非职业事故、情况和事件）数据库的开发。 NOISE 数据库目前包含 536 项独立的休闲活动和事件，包括噪声水平测量值（L-Aeq 和 L-Cpeak）以及有关每个事件情况的详细信息。这些数据分为七类，其中可以识别高噪声事件和活动。数据库中 35% 的事件超过 85 分贝（根据工作场所标准，噪音水平被视为风险），3% 超过 100 分贝。 14% 的事件超出了可接受的工作场所噪声暴露限值 1.01 Pa(2)h。数据库中记录的噪声暴露水平可用于识别高风险休闲活动、估计个人的休闲噪声暴露以及对休闲和工作场所噪声暴露进行比较。
This paper describes the development of the NOISE (Non-Occupational Incidents, Situations and Events) Database. The NOISE database currently contains 536 separate leisure activities and events, including noise level measurements, (L-Aeq and L-Cpeak), and detailed information about the circumstances of each event. The data are organized into seven categories, in which high-noise events and activities can be identified. Thirty-five percent of events in the database were over 85 dB (the level at which noise is considered a risk according to workplace standards) and 3% were over 100 dB. Fourteen percent of events exceeded the acceptable workplace noise exposure limit of 1.01 Pa(2)h. The noise exposure levels recorded in the database can be used to identify high-risk leisure activities and to estimate individuals' leisure noise exposures and make comparisons between leisure and workplace noise exposures.
