We have created some free-to-use tools for calculating noise levels and understanding acoustics.
Noise mapping / sound level modelling
Create complex sound level models for free in your browser. Add point sources, barriers, buildings and receiver points with frequency information. See the sound paths and how these are affecting the levels. Interact with your model, modifying positions and parameters and see the calculation results instantly.
Learn through exprimentation how the calculations of ISO 9613 parts 1 and 2 are implemented and how they affect predicted levels. Built into your browser, your model is stored in the location bar making it easy to save and share your interactive models with other people.
