The Range Managers Toolkit (RMTK) Noise Tool

Abstract

The Range Managers Toolkit (RMTK) Noise Tool is a noise prediction and impact assessment software tool designed to enable installation Range Control offices to quickly assess the noise impact of military training or testing at a specified site under a variety of weather conditions, and to plan preliminary range siting for noise. The noise model outputs a map display that designates acoustic regions in decibels and by color. This work documents and summarizes the scientific basis for noise complaint risk criteria, weather cases, and time-on-target assessment.
