Summary

  The nationally consistent terrestrial Tranquillity & Place resource identifies the strategic and local resource in remote, rural, peri-urban and urban areas for use as an evidence base to inform policy intent, practice and provision for well-being benefits. There are 6 themes.

Tranquillity is associated with the degree to which places and ecosystems deliver a state of quiet, calm, peace and well-being. This can be described as a relative abundance, perception or experience of nature, natural landscapes and features and/or a relative freedom from unwanted visual disturbance, signs of human influence and artificial noise. Tranquillity & Place Sound Environment Part I delivers Theme 4, mapping sound environments where natural sounds are more prominent than noise and are appropriate to context. It includes sounds other than road and railway noise.
