Short-term noise-sensitive events like New Year\u2019s Eve, derby matches, DJ night, Diwali night (celebration with firecracker) in India, etc. create lots of noise in a short period. There is a need to come up with a system that can predict the noise level for an area for a short period indicating its detailed variations. GIS (Geographic Information System)-based google maps for terrain data and crowd-sourced or indirect collection of noise data can overcome this challenge to a great extent. Authors have tried to map the highly noisy Diwali night for Lucknow, a northern city of India. The mapping was done by collecting the data from 100 points using the noise capture app (30% were close to the source and 70% were away from the source (receiver). Noise data were predicted for 750 data points using the modeling interpolation technique. A noise map is generated for this Diwali night using the crowd-sourcing technique for Diwali night. The results were also varied with 50 test points and are found to be within \u00b14.4 dB. Further, a noise map is also developed for the same site using indirect data of noise produced from the air pollution open-sourced data. The produced noise map is also verified with 50 test points and found to be \u00b16.2 dB. The results are also corroborated with the health assessment survey report of the residents of nearby areas.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ijgi11010025","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,30]],"date-time":"2021-12-30T21:41:21Z","timestamp":1640900481000},"page":"25","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":14,"title":["GIS Mapping of Short-Term Noisy Event of Diwali Night in Lucknow City"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Rakesh","family":"Dubey","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Surveying Lab, Department of Computer Science and Engineering and Engineering Science, Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology, Amethi 229304, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4148-2520","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shruti","family":"Bharadwaj","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Surveying Lab, Department of Computer Science and Engineering and Engineering Science, Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology, Amethi 229304, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Md Iltaf","family":"Zafar","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Surveying Lab, Department of Computer Science and Engineering and Engineering Science, Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology, Amethi 229304, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vanshu","family":"Mahajan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Chemical Engineering and Engineering Science, Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology, Amethi 229304, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Anubhava","family":"Srivastava","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Surveying Lab, Department of Computer Science and Engineering and Engineering Science, Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology, Amethi 229304, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-1056-4980","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Susham","family":"Biswas","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Surveying Lab, Department of Computer Science and Engineering and Engineering Science, Rajiv Gandhi Institute of Petroleum Technology, Amethi 229304, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,12,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"647","DOI":"10.5194\/isprs-archives-XLIII-B4-2020-647-2020","article-title":"Determination of Optimal Location for Setting Up Cell Phone Tower in City Environment Using Lidar Data","volume":"43","author":"Bharadwaj","year":"2020","journal-title":"ISPRS\u2014Int.
