Análisis de la variable ruido y su relación con la dimensión socioeconómica en la ciudad. Un caso de estudio en la UPL Engativá, Bogotá D.C.

Abstract

The objective of this paper is to analyze the behavior of the noise variable in the Local Planning Unit (UPL) of Engativá for Bogotá, characterizing its causes and negative effects that may affect the planning processes of the city. This by means of a deductive research with correlational scope using data from the Multipurpose Survey for 72 UPZ in the city of Bogotá, as well as noise data from the District Secretary of Environment and spatial information at block level for the Engativá UPL. Finally, a direct relationship was found between the socioeconomic variables and the noise levels measured, not only econometrically but also spatially, which allows then to have spaces for discussion of this problem considering the aspect of urban planning as a fundamental tool in the mitigation of the negative impacts of noise on the population.
