How does it work?

Noise Sentinel is a subscription-based monitoring service that has been specifically designed to enable industry to monitor and report compliance with noise restrictions and to help manage noise impact. Extensive reporting and alerts for noise exceedances via local audible and visual indicators, SMS or e-mail are standard functions. Noise Sentinel provides noise management capabilities to industry and local authority urban monitoring applications on a platform accessible from anywhere over the internet.

Noise Sentinel is a web-based subscription service

Noise Sentinel not only automatically reports noise compliance based on monitoring, it also monitors the noise in real-time to enable operators to manage and avoid exceedances. With a clear and simple user interface optimised to manage noise in real-time, Noise Sentinel can be easily used by operations staff. Thus, Noise Sentinel meets Best Available Techniques (BATs) of Industrial Pollution Prevention and Control (IPPC) legislation such as 2008/1/EC for industrial sites.

Managing noise exceedance

Noise Sentinel enables you to manage operations in order to maintain compliance with any noise restrictions. In operation, Noise Sentinel’s real-time noise control application displays a map of the surrounding area with the monitoring locations identified. Current noise levels are shown on the map in real-time at each location. If the noise reaches defined levels, warnings and alerts are triggered indicating either that noise levels have exceeded defined criteria, or will breach the criteria if noise continues at the current levels.
