  • Brussels-Capital Region : Mapping of urban cool / heat islands in the Brussels-Capital Region carried out in 2018. This heat stress simulation is based on the modelling of the average "Wet Bulb Globe Temperature" over 24 hours which takes into account the air temperature but also the exposure to solar radiation, wind and air humidity for a typical hot summer day (i.e. 24 August 2016). The study report (in Dutch) is available at http://document.environnement.brussels/opac_css/elecfile/Cartografie_Koelte_Eilanden_BHG See also the focus on this subject on https://environnement.brussels/lenvironnement-etat-des-lieux/en-detail/climat/cartographie-des-ilots-de-fraicheur-bruxelles (in French) or https://leefmilieu.brussels/het-leefmilieu-een-stand-van-zaken/volledige-versie/klimaat/de-koelte-eilanden-van-brussel-kaart (in Dutch)

  • Brussels-Capital Region : This map shows the Health Impact Screening score for noise pollution (0-8) in the Brussels Capital Region. It was produced as part of the 2020 study on the "Impact of 'Nature-Based Solutions' (NBS) on urban residents' exposure to air pollution, noise pollution or high temperatures - Overview of general knowledge and recommendations for the Brussels-Capital Region". This map is based on the 2016 noise pollution maps for road traffic and rail traffic. For the methodology used, see p.51. The study report (in dutch) is available at http://document.environnement.brussels/opac_css/elecfile/NatureBasedSolutions

  • Brussels-Capital Region : Railway traffic noise register 2016 (noise contours maps) for the Ln acoustic indicator (night-time noise indicator). These maps are produced with an acoustic model in accordance with the prescriptions of the European directive 2002/49/EC. The analysis of these maps is provided in the fact sheet n°6, available in French (https://document.environnement.brussels/opac_css/elecfile/Bru_6) and Dutch (https://document.environnement.brussels/opac_css/elecfile/Geluid_6).

  • Brussels-Capital Region : This map shows the combined Health Impact Screening score for heat stress, air pollution and noise pollution (0-9) in the Brussels Capital Region. It was produced as part of the 2020 study on the "Impact of 'Nature-Based Solutions' (NBS) on urban residents' exposure to air pollution, noise pollution or high temperatures - Overview of general knowledge and recommendations for the Brussels-Capital Region". This map is a combination of 3 maps: heat stress (24/08/2016), air pollution (2018) and noise pollution (2016). For the methodology used, see p.54. The study report (in dutch) is available at http://document.environnement.brussels/opac_css/elecfile/NatureBasedSolutions

  • Brussels-Capital Region : Railway traffic noise register for the year 2016 (noise contours maps) for the Lden acoustic indicator (day-evening-night noise indicator). These maps are produced with an acoustic model in accordance with the prescriptions of the European directive 2002/49/EC. The analysis of these maps is provided in the fact sheet n°6, available in French (https://document.environnement.brussels/opac_css/elecfile/Bru_6) and Dutch (https://document.environnement.brussels/opac_css/elecfile/Geluid_6).

It was produced as part of the 2020 study on the "Impact of 'Nature-Based Solutions' (NBS) on urban residents' exposure to air pollution, noise pollution or high temperatures - Overview of general knowledge and recommendations for the Brussels-Capital Region". This map is based on the maximum Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (WBGT) map of 24 August 2016. For the methodology used, see p.48.

  • Brussels-Capital Region : This map shows the Health Impact Screening score for air quality (0-8) in the Brussels Capital Region. It was produced as part of the 2020 study on the "Impact of 'Nature-Based Solutions' (NBS) on urban residents' exposure to air pollution, noise pollution or high temperatures - Overview of general knowledge and recommendations for the Brussels-Capital Region". This map is based on the 2018 annual average nitrogen dioxide concentration map. For the methodology used, see p.49.
