Residents under the flight path, for the noise programme
The most populated blocks near the airport, for the noise programme.
What it does
Every year: the blocks within 8 km of the airport with the most residents, the 20 most affected first, with a note by xMap AI for the community noise programme, emailed and mapped.
In one sentence: Monthly on the 1st at 08:00, in Amsterdam, count who lives around, sort them by population and keep the top 20, write a report with xMap AI, then show them on a map and email the list to you.
Why it is useful
Noise programmes must reach the people most affected. This shows where they live.

The time it saves
Monthly on the 1st at 08:00. Doing the same work by hand takes about 120 minutes each time; it runs about 1 time a month, so it saves about 2 hours a month (an estimate). It is medium: 7 blocks.
