importance of individual experience in assessing the soundscapes of urban environments and identifying a terminology to facilitate an introduction of soundscapes into the planning process Drawing on work from soundscape ecology a way is demonstrated to coalesce these divergent positions
To evaluate urban soundscapes, it is thus required to analyze semantic properties attributed to sound sources and not only by noise level measurements. Based on such concepts adapted from communication science and semiotics, a model which supports the classification of auditory events is therefore suggested.
Regardless of the source, loud sounds can produce negative psychological effects. Sounds generated by human behaviors can foster psychological stability. Even noise sources like traffic can positively affect urban soundscape perception in specific context. Appropriate human activities can be encouraged for relaxing soundscapes.
If ideal urban soundscapes should reflect life through sounds communicating human presence and activities, noise annoyance is interpreted by the fact that “traffic” is the obvious salient factor describing the environment of cities ( Raimbault and Dubois, submitted ).
Researchers vary in the sound source taxonomy they use for urban acoustic environments, but these taxonomies can generally be classified based on human activity (Brown, Kang, & Gjestland, 2011) or people, nature, and manmade structures (Bones, Cox, & Davies, 2018 ).
