Over the past year, members of the Institute of Geomatics Engineering (IVGI) at the University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland (FHNW) have developed the “IVGI Noise App”, an application to map and view noise level data. The web application is for use in environmental education during events, promoting science and engineering at secondary schools. The idea is to raise awareness of noise pollution and its consequences among students, while fostering their interest in spatial technologies by highlighting their role and potential in real-world problem solving.
