Sažetak
Noise is every unwanted sound that surrounds us. Noise has many sources and lately it has become large-scale problem. Traffic is one of the most important causes of noise. According to impact on human health, there are regulations which designate maximum permissible noise levels in areas where people work and live. Considering related work, mainly it is referred to theoretical knowledge applied in numerous scientific papers. There are many states and cities such as Finland, Mexico City etc., where noise control is recognized as an important issue. Since there are no similar projects in Croatia, we have decided to tackle the problem of noise control. In this paper we have presented the basic idea of the noise measurement device. Furthermore, we have shown the principle of networking devices in the sensory network. Finally, we have described and exemplified method for displaying the measured data using the programming tools QGIS. The final idea is to create a system that will collect data and display them in almost real time through a web interface.
