SoundPLAN GmbH news
SoundPLANnoise's current version 9.0 sets new standards for modern, dynamic and intuitive software.
The latest developments include e.g., the update of the of the Geo-Database, where the geodata are entered and prepared for the subsequent calculation. In addition, other functions have been added to the program to make it easier for users to create professional reports and to improve the efficiency of their daily work.
New features:
- Fully updated user interface of the Ge
SoundPLANmanda 1.0 is the new program for occupational health and safety experts to help them assess environmental hazards and map and analyze noise in workplaces. The tool provides the possibility to map and analyze harmful immissions, including noise, temperature, or air pollution.
Highlights:
- Data Import interface for georeferenced measurement data and display it with interpolated color coded iso contour lines.
- Flexible Analysis, to combine several measurements wit
SoundPLANessential 5.1 is an update which is free of charge for SoundPLANessential 5.0 customers. The reason for this update is on the one hand the compatibility with current NoizCalc projects (d&b audiotechnik) and on the other hand the adaption of BA Outside to the new versions of the standard EN ISO 12354-3:2017. Moreover, we implemented smaller customer wishes.
Already since version SoundPLANessential 5.0 included new features and improvements:
- The previous interface
The new version 8.2 of SoundPLANnoise is available with many new features:
- To take into account a directivity assigned to a line source, there is a new option "Directivity follows the line source". Thus, e.g. race tracks can be modelled very easily and a manual decomposition into partial sources is no longer necessary.
- For interior calculations, a variant concept is now available to define, calculate and compare different room acoustic plans in a simple and user-friendly
- Users of SoundPLANnoise now have the opportunity to exploit this technology for themselves when using the indoor sound particle model for indoor noise and room acoustics calculations.
- Many types of indoor calculations in SoundPLAN run much faster using OpenCL.
- OpenCL calculations can significantly accelerate calculation times for a broad range of sound particle jobs because the hardware it exploits is designed to perform mathematical operations on data with a high de
The new version 8.1 of SoundPLANnoise offers numerous improvements and new possibilities. These include:
- Our import and export interfaces have become even more user-friendly and are easier and more convenient to use than ever before. Plans in PDF format can now also be easily used as a data basis and fitted into a global coordinate system.
- The Property Explorer has been revised and now offers numerous new features that further simplify the handling of geodata and their p
Multiple new features and improvements include:
- Direct import of background images from Google Maps and OpenStreetMap
- Import of ground elevations from Google Maps
- Geometry import from OpenStreetMap
- Time correction calculator for industrial noise sources with a simple pocket calculator
- Bridges for roads and railways
- CNOSSOS-EU calculation method added
- Improved functionality when converting SoundPLANessential projects to SoundPL
SoundPLAN supports and complies with changes that have been proposed to ISO/TR 17534-3:2015, (https://www.iso.org/standard/66128.html) which relates to acoustics software for the calculation of sound outdoors.
Additional recommendations have been proposed for the calculation method of ISO 9613‑2. This International Standard ISO 9613-2 outlines the measures necessary to ensure a high quality of calculation methods for
SoundPLAN, the leading international expert designer and provider of acoustics and air pollution simulation software for environmental modelling, is calling on the bodies responsible for setting noise standards around the world to ensure that they implement and maintain high quality standards with thorough test procedures and scenarios.
The USA’s Federal Highway Administration’s Traffic Noise Model (TNM) is identified as an example of poor practice in this arena. Whe
