SoundPLAN Noise Mapping Software (Rail, Road, Indoor, Industrial and Aircraft)
Noise Mapping Software : –
SoundPLAN® is a computer simulation software suite created for professionals working with noise pollution scenarios.
SoundPLAN has four products which serves different applications and user types:-
- SoundPLAN Noise: Most versatile tool for Professional users
- SoundPLAN Essential: A compact simplified version for occasional users
- SoundPLAN Manda: An assessment tool to assess noise at workplace
- SoundPLAN Sarooma: A dedicated tool for room acoustics
SoundPLAN Noise:
SoundPLANnoise offers you the necessary tools and libraries that you need to execute your projects in all areas of application. Whether it’s a noise study for a building development plan, expert noise reports at the workplace or noise remediation: with its powerful and quality-assured calculation kernel, SoundPLANnoise is the professional solution for your tasks.
Whether in buildings or outdoors, whether industrial or traffic noise: with its versatile tools, SoundPLANnoise is the right acoustics software for every conceivable area of application.
Due to the modular structure of SoundPLANnoise, you can customize the acoustics software to meet your specific requirements. Modules can be added or removed at any time, according to your needs.
Modules such as road, rail, industrial or indoor noise, the enhanced graphics and mapping features in the 3D Graphics and Cartography and GIS modules, can be added or removed at any time, according to your needs.
SoundPLAN’s Cartography module contains helpful additions such as the connection to Google Maps, Google Earth, OSM and WMS Server as well as a KML export and import of photo points with GPS data. Cartographic elements and automated graphics output complete the module’s scope.
| Road and Rail Noise Module | Industry Noise module | Aircraft Noise module |
| Emissions from roads, railways and car parks are entered or imported via different traffic data sets determined by the standard in use. | Calculation of point, line and area sources, industrial halls, wind turbines, parking lots, open-air concerts, noise at the workplace (exposure levels). | Calculation of any descriptors, such as Leq, maximum level, NAT exceedance frequency, threshold value after NAT, wake-up probability, ANEF (Australian Noise Exposure Forecast). Maximum level statistics for the individual aircraft classes or the sum. |
SoundPLAN’s Graphical representation of results
Façade Noise Map
Single point calculation, which independently arranges the immision locations on the selected facades according to various criteria. Graphical representation of the facade levels (color marks, facades exceeding criterion levels, colored buildings …) and the results, which were further processed with the integrated spreadsheet. Text output, for example the immision location number or the level.
Grid Noise Map
- Calculation of an immersion grid at a user-defined height above ground. The grid width can be chosen as required.
- Display as a contour map with contour line labelling as a grid map, or with a color gradient.
- Output of maps of results calculated using formulae, for example difference maps. sum maps, maximum value maps or addition of constant values or levels.
- Freely definable colour scale for graphic output, for intervals or discrete colours (for contour lines) by different scale types.
- Colour intervals at constant intervals or non-linear, e.g. to highlight limits of different uses.
Output of the sum level or individual frequencies and groups.
Cross Section Noise
Vertical immision grid which can be displayed in 2D or 3D combined with other results types with the 3D Graphics module.
3D + and animated noise map
Any animation track, also along roads and railways. Animated train passage, level-time curve as diagram.
SoundPLAN Essential
With SoundPLANessential, we offer you a compact software solution for noise simulation in the context of smaller projects. If you only occasionally need to take noise-related questions into account, this acoustics software, as the core of its “big brother” SoundPLANnoise, is the ideal program for you.
SoundPLANessential is characterized by a simple and intuitive user interface. The program is optimized for standard noise simulation cases and can be used efficiently after only a short period of familiarization.

SoundPLAN manda
SoundPLANmanda is our mapping and analysis software for noise at work. You don’t have to be an expert to document your noise measurements efficiently and in a structured way. With the program-supported calculation of noise exposure at the workplace, risk assessment becomes child’s play.
Import functions simplify the data input and save a lot of time. With the help of standard layouts, meaningful tables and graphic outputs are created at the push of a button. This allows you to present and document your results professionally and clearly
Sarooma
Sarooma room acoustics software enables targeted acoustics design in 15 languages for 12 different national standards. It is an easy-to-use, user friendly Room Acoustics Calculator available for websites (Web App), for tablets and smartphones (Mobile App) or as classic desktop software for Windows (Windows App). It allows the calculation of reverberation times in octave bands from 125 Hz to 4 kHz and level reduction according to the Sabine Diffuse Field Theory. The software is based on a cutting-edge database that contains more than 3400 models of sound-absorbing products from many well-known manufacturers. While the Web App and Mobile App are tailored towards manufacturers and contain their brand’s products only, the Windows App is made for the professional planner and allows access to all available absorber products (Public Data). It even allows the user to enter further absorber product data (Private Data) .
