Noise map: a Birmingham first

This isn't a very good photo, so I wonder why it gets as many hits as it does. Is it the links in the accompanying text? Is it being referenced somewhere? I'm curious, especially as at last we are getting serious attention to the 'acoustic landscape', and how much it matters to how we live and enjoy or dislike our surroundings.
