SoundPLAN is a complete software package offering a full spectrum of noise and air pollution evaluation modules, with quick and accurate calculation and impressive graphics. Comprehensive studies involving any size areas and multiple sources an be completed efficiently and cost effectively using this modeling software.

SoundPLAN is a three dimensional graphics oriented program. It hosts a digitizer interface and can import bitmaps to digitize the plan. It produces color plots and tabulations of the input data and results. SoundPLAN also includes a wall/barrier design optimization utility and an industrial noise control module. Graphic displays help to visualize the benefits of noise control measures in terms of cost vs. noise level reduction. SoundPLAN is the the only integrated software system that models interior noise levels, sound transmission through building walls, sound propagation into the environment, and allows interactive optimization of noise control measures.

SoundPLAN is marketed worldwide by independent specialist representatives who provide sales, training and hot line services. Private firms, universities and government offices use SoundPLAN for environmental planning, research and evaluation through to various public presentations. Over 3500 users in more than 30 countries show SoundPLAN is helping organizations do their work more effectively. SoundPLAN is available in English, Finish, French, German, Japanese, Italian, Polish, and Spanish. It will soon be available in Chinese and Portuguese.

Some benefits when using SoundPLAN include:
uAccepts all major international standards
uTraceable propagation models - your work is documented and repeatable
uNoise control optimization features save money and time
uWall Design includes a cost/benefit ratio
uExpert System includes noise optimization features
