Acoustic Maps
The mapping of the sound field in front of a sound source is the simplest and most intuitive solution to optimize any type of acoustic intervention.
The acoustic mapping technique has been proposed for over 20 years as an option available in the NoiseWorks software. Recently this technique has been further developed and integrated into the ‘Giotto’ option of the SoundBook analysis system, allowing mapping of the sound field with semi-automatic procedures and execution times reduced to two, three minutes.
To better highlight the potential of these techniques, the relative results and the application sectors, a series of graphic examples accompanied by brief comments are reported in this document.
