This book introduces recent modelling tools and techniques for the quantitative analysis of environmental factors (e.g. noise, air quality, and water quality), in transportation systems including highways, aviation, and railroads. It discusses the legislative steps involved in conforming to the regulatory process for each environmental parameter, and explains the technical tools for performing analyses to complete the project development process. It fully examines the utilization of modelling techniques such as STAMINA and the integrated noise model for highway and aviation noise prediction, as well as CALINE-3 and HIWAY-2 for air quality analyses.
