How to Build a Community Noise Monitoring Project

Building a community noise monitoring project empowers residents. With Wonder Decibel, every participant's iPhone becomes a decibel meter.

Recruit neighbors to take measurements at consistent times. GPS tagging ensures each contribution is accurately located.

Establish a shared measurement protocol. The session logging makes it easy for everyone to follow the same procedure.

Present compiled data to local government as evidence. A community project using a reliable decibel meter demonstrates data-driven advocacy.
