Smart noise monitoring with our advanced measuring stations
Since the introduction of the Environment and Planning Act noise monitoring has become increasingly important for safeguarding a healthy living environment. Whether it concerns traffic, industry, construction and infrastructure or airports, our noise monitoring stations offer the perfect solution for mapping noise impact accurately and reliably. Discover the SV200A, SV307A, SV303, and SvanNET – our noise monitoring solutions that have proven their value in the Benelux and beyond. These instruments are widely deployed in traffic, industry, airports and urban environments, where they deliver reliable performance and meet the strictest guidelines.
Control noise nuisance and comply with the regulations
Noise nuisance can cause major problems, such as complaints from local residents, fines for non-compliance with regulations or delays to your project. Whether you work in construction, industry, at airports or in busy urban areas, monitoring and managing noise levels is essential in order to meet the applicable standards and to safeguard a pleasant living environment.
With our noise monitoring solutions you can:
- Measure and analyse noise nuisance accurately.
- Gain real-time insight so that you can take immediate action when limits are exceeded.
- Seamlessly integrate with SvanNET for central data analysis, reliable reporting and straightforward management of multiple measuring stations.
- Comply with national and international noise standards
The Environment and Planning Act and Urban Noise
Urban noise – you may well experience it yourself from time to time. Whether it is the constant traffic, the building work around the corner, or the lively sounds of a busy city square: noise nuisance is an everyday problem in our cities. With the introduction of the Environment and Planning Act on 1 January 2024, municipalities have been given more tools to tackle noise nuisance and make the living environment more pleasant for everyone.
What is the Environment and Planning Act?
The Environment and Planning Act provides a simpler system for spatial planning, the environment, nature and infrastructure, in which noise nuisance also has its place. Instead of various separate rules for each sector, there is one joint approach.
Urban Noise: What Does the Act Say?
Noise nuisance in the city can have a serious impact on the health and well-being of residents. Think of stress, sleep problems and even cardiovascular disease. The Environment and Planning Act responds to this by introducing a duty of care for authorities and businesses. This means that they are obliged to take measures to prevent or limit noise nuisance.
An Integrated Approach to Noise
One of the most powerful aspects of the Environment and Planning Act is its integrated approach. Noise is not viewed in isolation from other factors such as air quality, health or the environment. This means that when town planners and policymakers make choices about new projects – such as the construction of a new motorway, housing development or an industrial estate – they must always take the noise impact into account as well. By addressing it together with other environmental factors, a healthier, quieter living environment is created.
Municipalities take the lead: Noise plans
The Environment and Planning Act obliges municipalities to draw up noise plans. This means that municipalities actively examine the noise load in various areas, such as busy streets, industrial estates or residential districts. Where noise standards are exceeded, concrete measures must be taken to reduce the nuisance. This can be done, for example, through sound insulation in buildings, the installation of noise barriers, or the adjustment of traffic routes.
Together towards quieter cities
With the Environment and Planning Act there is therefore more focus on creating a city where we can not only live, work and relax well, but also enjoy our surroundings in peace and quiet.

But what are the differences?
The SV303 is an affordable noise monitor, ideal for urban noise measurements in smart cities. With class 1 accuracy it delivers reliable noise measurements for urban environments. Thanks to USB and UART interfaces it can easily be linked to systems for air quality, dust or weather. This flexibility makes the SV303 ideal for smart cities that aim for better environmental management.
The SV307A is an advanced noise monitor with built-in 4G and GPS functionality. It can be deployed autonomously, without depending on an existing system, and measures continuously with class 1 accuracy. Thanks to SvanNET, data can easily be stored, analysed and managed. With live audio streaming and advanced triggers, the SV 307A is a top choice for permanent environmental monitoring.
The power of SvanNET
SvanNET is the perfect addition to your SV307A or SV200A, allowing you to manage and analyse noise measurements efficiently. This web service gives you real-time access to measurement data, wherever you are.
With SvanNET, remote monitoring becomes effortless: noise data is automatically stored, structured and made available via a user-friendly web interface. This means you always have access to measurement results, anywhere, without being physically present at the equipment. SvanNET enables live audio streaming, so that you can listen directly to the noise conditions at the measurement location. Whether it concerns continuous monitoring of industrial noise nuisance or analysing environmental noise in urban areas, SvanNET enables you to respond more quickly.
Automatic GPS time synchronisation and advanced alarm functionality, such as notifications by e-mail or SMS when thresholds are exceeded, increase the efficiency of your monitoring projects.
SvanNET makes monitoring not only easier, but also smarter – and that is the key to successful noise management.
