Sound Map

A sound map is a visual or conceptual representation that shows where different sounds originate in a particular environment. It helps us understand the spatial distribution of noises—like the hum of traffic, birdsong, or voices—by illustrating their locations and how loud they are relative to each other. Think of it as a "music chart" for sounds, providing insights into the auditory landscape of a space, which can be useful for urban planning, noise management, or personal awareness of the sounds around us.
