The Brisbane Noise and Flight Path Monitoring System (NFPMS)

We collect noise and operational data from ten long term noise monitors (NMT) around Brisbane Airport. As part of the new runway opening we worked with BAC to install four additional short term noise monitors which are currently in place until July 2022. These short term noise monitors are located at Bardon, Carina, Hamilton and New Farm.

Long term noise monitors are listed below according to their location.
