Abstract

Environmental Acoustic Software products support different levels of interaction with GIS Software packages. Depending on the achieved level of interaction its value in project applications will rise. Different levels are discussed and demonstrated on practical applications: 1. Standard file exchange formats with GIS adaptation matching the needs of the Acoustic Software, e.g. QSI data format according to German DIN 45687 2. Standard file exchange format with object and attribute definition ruled by GIS software 3. Direct data communication, using e.g. geo-database of GIS application 4. “On the Fly” Pre-processing of GIS ruled attribute content ahead of noise calculation 5. Using external DLL's of Acoustic Software to check and update attribute content on GIS level 6. Supplementing GIS ability in initial data refinement by calling specific geometric and attribute manipulation tools of the Acoustic Software. 7. Steering any automated processing of complex workflows Automated workflows have been used in EU ...
