Noise Pollution is one of the biggest environmental challenges in modern cities. With increasing populations, expanding infrastructure, and growing transportation networks, noise pollution poses serious risks to public health, well-being, and overall quality of life. Realising the need for smarter solutions, Net4Cities will facilitate the realisation of the zero-pollution vision by 2050 with the help of Cirrus Research and Quantum Outdoor.
What is Net4Cities?
Net4Cities is a European initiative focused on achieving zero pollution in urban areas by 2050. With the participation of 11 partner cities across Europe, the project aims to tackle various environmental challenges, including noise pollution, by leveraging real-time monitoring, data analysis, and evidence-based policymaking.
By equipping cities with state-of-the-art environmental monitoring technology, Net4Cities enables policymakers to assess noise levels, identify pollution hotspots, and implement targeted solutions that enhance urban environments.
Supplying Cutting-Edge Noise Monitoring Technology
At Cirrus Research, weโve been at the forefront of noise monitoring solutions for over 50 years, and our Quantum Outdoor noise monitors have been designed to deliver high-precision, real-time environmental noise monitoring for long-term applications.
As part of our partnership with Net4Cities, 30 Quantum Outdoor units are being deployed across the partner cities. Our advanced monitoring technology will support governments in collecting accurate, real-time noise data to assess urban landscapes, monitor trends, identify noise pollution sources from transport, industry, and urban activity, and provide actionable insights for decision-makers to introduce effective noise reduction policies.
Jonathan Phillips, International Sales Manager at Cirrus Research, said, โWe are proud to support the Net4Cities project with our Quantum Outdoor noise monitoring technology. Urban noise pollution is a growing challenge, and by providing real-time, accurate data, we are encouraging cities to make informed decisions that enhance public health and quality of life. This partnership is a great example of how innovative environmental monitoring can drive meaningful change across Europe.โ
As Net4Cities continues to expand its impact, we remain committed to delivering innovative noise monitoring solutions that help shape better cities for the future.
