Summary:
An Italian SME creating and distributing audiovisual works in the Film industry has developed an advanced archiving system for geolocated audio files, with particular reference to soundscapes. These sound recordings contain a huge amount of information very difficult to archive, analyze and use through traditional systems. Organizations interested to use this technology for noise pollution or environment monitoring and analysis are sought for commercial agreement or technical cooperation.
Description:
Thanks to its own experience on audio technologies in Film industry sector the Italian SME has developed an advanced archiving system for audio files, with particular reference to soundscapes.
