aSPB – Autonomous Statistical Pass-By Measurement: Precise road traffic noise analysis without additional personnel costs

Traffic sign with 30 km/h speed limit and noise protection notice

Automated and precise road traffic noise analyses with aSBP from Müller-BBM Industry Solutions GmbH.

Road traffic noise is a key issue for many municipalities and road traffic authorities. However, the resources to carry out reliable, comparable and sufficiently long-term measurements are often lacking. Short-term measurements are time-consuming, labour-intensive and often only provide snapshots – an unreliable basis for decisions on road surfaces, traffic management or noise protection measures. This is where aSPB offers an efficient and technically precise solution.

Challenge: Noise analysis under real conditions

Many authorities face the same problems:

  • Measurement campaigns require on-site personnel and extensive planning.
  • Short-term measurements are hardly representative.
  • Decisions on noise reduction measures are often based on incomplete data.

The solution: autonomous measurement in live traffic

aSPB – Autonomous Statistical Pass-By Measurement records road traffic noise fully automatically, 24/7 and directly in moving traffic – without any personnel on site. The system operates in accordance with ISO 11819-1, the relevant standard for assessing road surfaces in terms of their acoustic impact. 

This means:

  • Autonomous operation around the clock
    Continuous data recording without interruptions.
  • Measurement in real traffic
    No artificial test drives – every situation is recorded under natural conditions.
  • Robust data sets
    Reliable and standard-compliant results for informed decisions. 

Your added value:

aSPB supports municipalities and authorities in designing noise protection measures in a holistic and resource-efficient manner. The automatically generated data sets enable:

  • A significantly improved database
    Representative measurements over long periods of time
  • Well-founded planning of effective noise protection measures
    From road surfaces and speed reduction to infrastructure measures.
  • Efficient and transparent budget decisions
    Investments can be objectively justified and prioritised.

This makes aSPB ideal for all organisations that want to reliably evaluate noise protection measures – technically correct, economically sensible and without additional personnel costs.
