Background & Inspiration

Background

With „Nonoizu“, Eberspächer’s incubator Next Shed has developed a business model in the field of noise pollution: it is a system that leverages aggregated noise data to cartographical information in ordert o predict noise for urban communities and their citizens.


Our goal is to develop from

  • status quo data to real time measurement
  • point by point to comprehensive noise measurement
  • averages to exact forecasts
  • generate transparency, opportunities for participation and actual value for the citizens

Together with you, we want to explore approaches how to leverage existing noise data from urban infrastructure.
