From What The Wiki?!
Geluidsnet operates a low-cost network of air plane noise measuringunits that surrounds Schiphol Airport in the Netherlands. The monitoringstations are housed by the local community; private people, schools andcompanies.By placing the measurement stations within a kilometre distance of eachother an overlapping network is created where you can watch a plane flyfrom one measuring unit to another.The monitoring stations are Linux computers with a calibrated microphoneattached to the sound card's microphone input. A DSL line is used toupload the measurements to a central database so that the results can beviewed real-time on our website.Measurement reports are made available to local municipality. Thisenables them to discuss the development of air plane noise with the Aircontrol officials based on their own measurements.
