Why Measure Weather Conditions Alongside Noise Levels?
Most regulations mandate specific weather conditions for sound data to be deemed valid. Additionally, some of these conditions, like wind and rain, can themselves generate noise.
By measuring both weather and noise levels with the same station, the analysis, data filtering, and alarm management processes are simplified and expedited.

How Do Soft dB Environmental Noise and Vibration Solutions Work?
Our monitoring stations, such as the Watch Soft dB Class 1 noise and vibration monitoring station, are deployed at strategic locations to collect data using sound, vibration, air overpressure and/or meteorological sensors. This environmental data, measured by the sensors and collected by the stations, is then transmitted in real time via 4G/LTE network to our Web Cloud server, where it is securely stored. The Soft dB Web platform communicates with the Cloud server, enabling you to access your environmental parameters remotely, in real time, 24/7.
So, via the Soft dB Monitoring Web Platform, it's very easy to set up notifications that are sent to you by text message or email as soon as the sensors and station measure a risk of exceeding your data, for example. And you receive automated log reports to keep you up to date with observed contaminants.
