Case Studies
- U.S. (California)
A public charter high school in Los Angeles used Enviro Education Tools’ sound meters during a semester-long environmental science project. Students monitored daily traffic noise across different urban zones, mapping data to study socioeconomic impacts. The teacher praised the accuracy and ease of use, leading to integration into the school’s yearly curriculum. - U.S. (New York)
An environmental science class at a community college in upstate New York utilized our meters in a campus-wide noise impact study. Data was used to recommend sound-dampening solutions in high-traffic student areas. The results were later presented to the college’s sustainability committee for campus improvement. - Canada (Ontario)
A university in Ontario deployed our sound level meters as part of an interdisciplinary research program combining public health, environmental science, and engineering. Students collected and analyzed noise levels near train tracks and industrial zones, correlating findings with community health surveys to create noise-mapping visuals shared with local municipalities.
