We present the Sounds of New York City (SONYC) project, a smart citiesinitiative focused on developing a cyber-physical system for the monitoring,analysis and mitigation of urban noise pollution. Noise pollution is one of thetopmost quality of life issues for urban residents in the U.S. with proveneffects on health, education, the economy, and the environment. Yet, mostcities lack the resources to continuously monitor noise and understand thecontribution of individual sources, the tools to analyze patterns of noisepollution at city-scale, and the means to empower city agencies to takeeffective, data-driven action for noise mitigation. The SONYC project advancesnovel technological and socio-technical solutions that help address theseneeds.  SONYC includes a distributed network of both sensors and people forlarge-scale noise monitoring. The sensors use low-cost, low-power technology,and cutting-edge machine listening techniques, to produce calibrated acousticmeasurements and recognize individual sound sources in real time. Citizenscience methods are used to help urban residents connect to city agencies andeach other, understand their noise footprint, and facilitate reporting andself-regulation. Crucially, SONYC utilizes big data solutions to analyze,retrieve and visualize information from sensors and citizens, creating acomprehensive acoustic model of the city that can be used to identifysignificant patterns of noise pollution. These data can be used to drive thestrategic application of noise code enforcement by city agencies to optimizethe reduction of noise pollution. The entire system, integrating cyber,physical and social infrastructure, forms a closed loop of continuous sensing,analysis and actuation on the environment.  SONYC provides a blueprint for the mitigation of noise pollution that canpotentially be applied to other cities in the US and abroad.
