You have a noise problem?
We at SoundPLAN have the solution for you.
Noise is one of the highest environmental burdens in the industrialized countries.
Therefore, we have made it our business to contribute to a quieter and healthier environment.
With our professional noise simulation software, we offer the best and most innovative tool for solving noise problems. Whether traffic, industrial and leisure noise or room acoustics: we have an efficient and suitable solution for the most diverse noise problems.
Professional, high-quality, innovative: Your noise experts from SoundPLAN
Professional, high-quality and innovative – this is our work standard and the motivation of our teams, most of whose members have been with our company for many years. This is an indication that our highly qualified physicists, engineers, computer scientists and geographers are well-attuned to each other and work closely together in software development, in the preparation of expert reports or in supporting our customers.
We ensure our high-quality standards, among other things, by often using two-person teams that support and control each other, benefit from joint know-how and thus work efficiently and in a solution-oriented way.
Think big – worldwide and across borders
In addition, we do not live on theory alone. Our team thinks beyond the borders of countries and their guidelines and is in constant exchange with experts in the field of noise protection around the world.
The daily feedback from our customers gives us the opportunity to react flexibly and to constantly improve and develop our software further.
Our strength: Less noise – more quality of life
Municipal administrations, immission control officers, engineering offices and architects benefit from our many years of experience as a market leader for professional noise simulation software, not only in Germany but on a global scale.
Our customers trust our expert knowledge when it comes to the important environmental issues of noise protection, because we do everything to reduce noise and improve people’s quality of life. This is what our name stands for: SoundPLAN.
SoundPLANnoise
Our “all-rounder”
The SoundPLANnoise package is modular
If you produce professional noise reports on a daily basis, you need noise software you can rely on. Engineering offices, state and local authorities, architects, concert promoters or venues, and universities all work with our effective noise software in a wide range of application areas.
Professional noise surveys for all requirements
Ranging from simple standard investigations to special tasks, SoundPLANnoise offers answers to every conceivable question in the fields of noise immission control, environmental acoustics and room acoustics. This includes, for example, route planning, development plans, approval procedures, noise action plans, noise mapping, assessing open-air events or planning open-plan offices.
Individually adaptable – easy to use
Here’s the special advantage of SoundPLANnoise: The modular structure of our software allows you, quickly and easily, to adapt the program to your individual requirements at any time.
SoundPLANnoise is also intuitive to use. With its well-thought-out workflow, it enables you to work efficiently – right through from modeling to the final graphical and tabular presentation of the results – so that you can reach your goal as quickly as possible.
Always up to date
Our maintenance contract guarantees that your SoundPLANnoise software is always up to date, so that the calculations you perform are always based on the latest guidelines and standards
Product description

SoundPLANnoise 9.1
…structural Update with smart improvements…
In addition to structural changes in the background, SoundPLANnoise 9.1 comes with many minor and major improvements that make daily project work even easier.
One of the structural changes is the revision of the 3D graphics, which now is updated to the latest state of the art. This allows for quicker integration of new features in the future. The new 3D building contour line display is already an example of this.
Further highlights of SoundPLANnoise 9.1:
- ISO 9613-2: 2024 including object type cylinder, chimney stack directivity and detailed consideration of attenuation by foliage (trees and shrubs).
- Possibility to consider sound transmission through noise barriers for selected standards.
- The import has been revised and simplified and extended by the flexible assignment of properties via formulas. Additional program libraries for the import help to serve new import formats more quickly in the future.
- Direct Excel data import in the Geo-Database.
- Enhanced parameters and settings for Nord2000.
- Use of LZW compressed TIFFs in the elevation filter.
- New roof type barrel roof for industrial buildings.
- Additional psychoacoustic assessment descriptors loudness, sharpness and tonality.
- Improvements in the Spreadsheet, e.g. headings can now be oriented vertically.
- New line band table and line band map for the calculation and visualization of noise scores and hotspots as well as other statistical evaluations.
