OpeNoise vs AirQ Mobile

OpeNoise is a real-time noise level meter. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS: - Real-time A-weighted sound pressure level measurement - Minimum and maximum level - Third octave and FFT analysis - Data saving in text file - Calibration - Displaying measurements on a map - Metadata compilation - Sharing calibration and measurements with the OpeNoise community TERM OF USE This app is not intended for professional use, it does not necessarily guarantee an accurate noise measurement. Since each device has a different response to noise, a comparison with a professional noise level meter in the measurement dynamic range is required. The utilization of the app requires adequate technical knowledge and skill; an extemporary measurement might not be correct. The calibrations and measurements sent to the OpeNoise community will be used for statistical purposes only and cannot be used in any way to verify compliance with legal limits.

The purpose of this application is to collect air quality data in real time from the sensors installed in the moving vehicle. This data can then be visualized in the cab as well as viewed back at the base. The application will collect the data from the sensor and GPS coordinates in real time so the pollution plume can be tracked from an incident and evacuation can be advised if necessary. This application will store the data in the local database and display the live data in 3D maps. It will also upload the data to the central database which can then be visualized on the web application anywhere.
