Quality assured software
The CNOSSOS-EU and ISO 9613 standard are among the most used noise prediction method worldwide. Many countries refer to these standards in their noise legislation. However the standards do not contain guidelines for quality assured software implementation, which leads to differences between applications in calculated results. In 2015 this changed with the release of ISO/TR 17534. This quality standard gives clear recommendations for interpreting the methods. iNoise fully supports these recommendations. The models and results for the test cases are included in the software.
iNoise supports the quality assurance interface (QSI format) for exchanging model data with other noise prediction software.
I found it really easy to get to know the program using the ‘Getting Started’ guide. I found the menu’s and functions very intuitive. I typically found that when I thought a function should exist, it did and it was where I expected it to be.
