Tranquillity and Place Wales Sound Environment Part 2 2024
The nationally consistent terrestrial Tranquillity & Place resource identifies the strategic and local resource in remote, rural, peri-urban and urban areas for use as an evidence base to inform policy intent, practice and provision for well-being benefits. There are 6 themes.
Tranquillity & Place Sound Environment Part II delivers Theme 4, where natural sounds may be expected to be more prominent than noise and are appropriate to context building upon Part I to incorporate Welsh Government Strategic Noise Mapping for Wales 2022 Road and Rail.

The rural analysis (50m resolution) covers the entirety of Wales, including those areas covered by the urban analysis, to allow for consistent comparisons between different geographies. The urban analysis (10m resolution) is in addition to this, but only covers the urban areas defined using the extent of the study areas mapped in the Urban Tree Cover data. Scores use a scale of 0 – 10, sounds that contribute to tranquillity getting a higher score, decreasing with distance from the source. Sounds that detract from tranquillity were given a lower score, increasing with distance from the source.
