Back in November 2011, some of the Cirrus staff carried out some noise measurements at firework displays on and around Bonfire night.
You can read more about this on this blog post.
This generated a lot of interest and discussion and so we’re going to repeat the exercise in 2013 and we’d like to gather as much data as possible.
If you’re attending a fireworks display this November and you have access to a sound level meter, we’d like to ask you to make some measurements.
The information that we’re interested in gathering is:
- Time & Date of the measurement
- Approximate location
- Measurement duration
- LAeq,t
- LAFmax
- LCPeak
We would prefer measurements made within crowds or groups of people where possible so the measurements are representative of the noise that you are being exposed to.
The more information we can gather, the better!
Happy measuring!
