- The current dataset for all reports is from Jan 01, 1970 to Jan 01, 1970.
- The altitudes are still spotty in many places.
- Some options run slowly or even hang depending on the result set, or if the query is too complex.
- And, did we mention that sometimes the Port of Seattle’s data source has exactly the same challenges? 😀
We are attempting to improve this as we get more data from volunteers. If you would like to volunteer, please read here. If you are having difficulty or are interested in a particular query you don’t see here, please make a research request.
Noise Reports
Let’s see how noisy it is…
These first few reports and graphs are very small steps in what I hope will be a larger project, including information on the effects to health, real estate and income as I have time to build. The current data set represents 0 noise events from Jan 01, 1970 to Jan 01, 1970. Please see the Noise Monitors Section of this page for more information.
#1 Hourly Noise Detail Report
This first form shows you the average noise and number of flights at a given hour of the day (or night) for one or more locations over a range of dates.
Example: “Show me the average noise level near Des Moines Memorial Drive at 3pm from January to July of 2017”.
To Use: Select the Monitor which is nearest to your neighborhood, enter an hour of the day, the starting and ending dates to include, then press ‘Go’.

This second form below is a different take on the same data. It gives you the average noise and number of flights for each hour of the day over the range of dates you select.
