Abstract The Federal Aviation Administration, Office of Environment and Energy (AEE-120) has developed Version 5.0 of the Integrated Noise Model (INM) with support from the ATAC Corporation, the U.S. Department of Transportation John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center, and LeTech Incorporated. The FAA Integrated Noise Model is widely used by the civilian aviation community for evaluating aircraft noise impacts in the vicinity of airports. The model is typically used in the U.S. for FAR Part 150 noise compatibility planning and FAA Order 1050 environmental assessments and environmental impact statements. Major enhancements to INM Version 5.0 include a new graphics user interface, new data preparation and data input aids, new graphics and plotting capabilities, and improved and faster noise calculation algorithms. There are many technical enhancements to the computer code which provide faster run times and more accurate noise predictions. INM Version 5.0 software runs on PCS using a minimum hardware configuration of a 486DX 66-MHZ processor, Microsoft7 Windows NTJ 3.5 or WindowsJ 3.1 operating systems, 32-Mb RAM (NT) or 16-Mb RAM (Windows), 640x480 16 colors VGA display, mouse input device, 3.5-inch 1.44 Mb floppy disk drive, 300-Mb hard disk drive, and CD-ROM (optional).
