ACOUSTICAL MONITORING, PLANNING AND DESIGN OF URBAN TERRITORIES

Abstract

The problems connected with acoustical monitoring, planning and design of urban territories are considered. Approaches to acoustical monitoring of urban territories are described. Peculiarities of acoustical planning and design of urban territories are described taking to account European and Russian experience. The holistic approach to planning and acoustical design of landscapes is suggested. Smart solutions are considered as a part of the global comfort scheme: smart urban planning shows various connections with smart noise action plans. Examples of smart solutions are presented. The results of work are allowing to make more comfortable acoustical environment in urban territories and to reduce negative impact of noise to the human health more efficiently.
