The Method of Soundscape Evaluation of Selected Urban Parks in Poland

This paper presents the results of objective measurements in urban parks in Poland. The main aim of the survey was to evaluate the minimum and the maximum of the sound level in urban open public spaces. The evaluation component was the scope of changes in the sound level in parks compared to the spread of the sound level values on selected cities' streets near parks. The measurements were taken in 44 urban parks in 7 cities. Although some differences have been found, it was possible to estimate the soundscape of the city and urban parks in every one of them. Among the measured parks, the largest range of sound level occurred in the Dabrowski Park in Poznan - this park is situated next to the Stary Browar. The smallest range of sound level among the parks has been noticed in the Bogucice Park in Katowice. The largest differences in noise levels have been found in the city centers of Krakow and Wroclaw. The findings show that the objective measured range between the minimum and the maximum sound level may be another factor for the subjective evaluation of the soundscape in urban open public spaces.
