Presentation on the Nord2000 noise model used in Sweden for road traffic noise mapping. Nord2000 uses five vehicle categories described by weight and number of axles, with 1/3 octave band frequency resolution from 25 to 10000 Hz. Two sources per vehicle category represent rolling and propulsion mechanisms. The model includes surface corrections based on Swedish CPX measurements, horizontal and vertical directivity patterns, and methods for deriving source sound power levels from field measurements using the propagation model with assumed omnidirectional sources.

Proposal towards defining corrective steering functions as a distinct function apart from automatically commanded steering functions.
