Acoustic monitoring against noise pollution

Noise pollution is nearly as damaging as air pollution and affects a third of the European population. In 2018 the World Health Organization stated 1.6 million lives are lost in Europe alone due to the effects of noise pollution.Overexposure to excessive noise causes high blood pressure, depression, hypertension and even death caused by cardiovascular disease. Making noise pollution a serious and underestimated global health risk.With growing urbanization, these numbers must be reduced by turning down noise pollution. Environmental monitoring with the Sorama L642 Acoustic Monitor series provides actionable insights in large areas.Rather than making snapshot measurements, using a traditional sound level meter, monitoring provides a much better insight into daily living and working conditions.
