Lessons from an Airport Noise Office
Airports are essential to our communities, but nearby residents often have concerns about the impact the associated noise will have on their daily lives. At the AAAE Conference, we watched this video from the Port of Seattle, a great introduction to what a successful airport noise program can look like. Larson Davis' suite of SoundAdvisor Sound Level Meters and Noise Monitoring Systems are instrumental in implementing a broad spectrum of noise programs at airports across the world.
