Abstract (EN): Noise mapping field measurements in a vast number of points and using large periods of sampling in every location is a very time consuming task. It would be useful, in alternative, to know at what time during the day or night the measurements should be done but using a short time interval to achieve similar results as the ones found by long and regular measurements procedures. Following a large campaign of field measurements near the town of Porto the results show the time periods and measurements durations found for this speedy methodology based in the concept of
