  • Soundscape Certificate Course
    Sponsor: Soundscape Certificate Course Organizer: HKIE-MMNC & HKIOA Session 1 - From noise control to soundscape planning Session 2 - 1st Excursion Session 3 - Methods in soundscape evaluation Session 4 - Positive & negative soundscapes Session 5 - 2nd Excursion Session 6 - Soundscape planning and design Deadline of application: 11 Nov 2016 Soundscape has recently been defined by International Organization of Standardization as “[the] acoustic environment as perceived or experienced and/or understood by a person or people, in context” (ISO 2014). In the same way as landscape is what we see and its meaning to us, soundscape is all what we hear and how it affects us. In the last ten years, there has been a growing interest in soundscape studies and an increasing number of publications in scientific literature of the field. There is increasing evidence that the soundscape we live in can affect our health and well-being. It is also contended that the soundscape approach can augment our conventional noise control approach in managing the urban acoustic environment. This course gives an introduction to soundscape, what we measure and evaluate and how we can craft a soundscape that promotes health.
