Urban Soundscape Informational Quantization: Validation Using a Comparative Approach
Through interaction with environmental parameters such as light or sound, urban and architectural spaces generate ambiences with identifiable characteristics. This notion of ambiences is related to the human being position through its perception of environmental physical phenomenon during a pedestrian walk. Presented work aims to evaluate, so as to characterize, the impact of sound ambiences (s...
متن کاملPerception of urban park soundscape.
A number of studies have been initiated to explore how to improve the soundscape quality in urban parks. However, good soundscape quality in parks cannot be provided without a thorough understanding of the complex relationships among sound, environment, and individuals. As acoustic comfort is considered to be an important outcome of soundscape quality, this study investigates the relative impac...
متن کاملSoundscape mapping in urban contexts using GIS techniques
Urban acoustic environments consist of various sound sources including traffic noise, human-generated sounds, and natural sounds that affect the soundscape perception of a given location. However, these sound sources are indistinguishable by noise maps that are based on sound pressure levels. Hence, soundscape maps based on the perception of sounds are necessary to describe an acoustic environm...
متن کاملOn urban soundscape mapping: A computer can predict the outcome of soundscape assessments
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether or not a computer may predict the outcome of soundscape assessments, based on acoustic data only. It may be argued that this is impossible, because a computer lack life experience. Moreover, if the computer was able to make an accurate prediction, we also wanted to know what information it needed to make this prediction. We recruited 33 stude...
متن کاملSilent Soundwalking: an urban pedestrian soundscape methodology
Acousticians have industriously devised and refined metrics for measuring and predicting human responses to environmental noise such as sons, phons, noys, NC, NR, dB(A) dB(C), Leq, Ldn, and when rigorously applied in ISO standards offer effective reproducibility and repeatability, but they fall short when it comes to charting the vicissitudes of everyday listening and the communication of that ...
