SONYC is currently seeking citizen scientists to help address NYC’s noise by annotating audio clips for our machine learning technology.
Taking aim at New Yorkers' biggest civic complaint – noise – a team of scientists from NYU, working with collaborators at Ohio State University, have launched a first-of-its-kind comprehensive research initiative to understand and address noise pollution in New York and beyond. The project – which involves large-scale noise monitoring – leverages the latest in machine learning technology, big data analysis, and citizen science reporting to more effectively monitor, analyze, and mitigate urban noise pollution. Known as Sounds of New York City (SONYC), this multi-year project has received a $4.6 million grant from the National Science Foundation and has the support of City health and environmental agencies.
Includes funding from Ford, Hewlett, Luminate, MacArthur, OpenSocietyFoundation, and Chandler foundations totaling over half a billion dollars
