<ul>
<li> Install the app from Google Play: <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.noise_planet.noisecapture" target="_blank">https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.noise_planet.noisecapture</a> ... </li>
<li> ... or fro the free Aptoide store: <a href="https://noisecapture.en.aptoide.com/" target="_blank">https://noisecapture.en.aptoide.com/</a> </li>
<li> Start a recording </li>
<li> Take a walk (in outdoor) </li>
<li> Stop the measurement </li>
<li> Enter some information (optional) on the sound environment (including aggreement and tags) </li>
<li> Check the acoustic indicators </li>
<li> Check the map and choose the information you want to display (including the Community Sound Level map) </li>
<li> See the Help menu of the application and the Google Play notice for more information </li>

</h4>
</div>
<div id="question_best" class="panel-collapse collapse" style="height: 0px;">
<div class="panel-body">
<h5><span class="label label-primary">Answer</span></h5>
<ul>
<li> Measure with the telephone by hand (the measurement continues even after the phone switches to standby) </li>
<li> Use walking preferably </li>
<li> When you perceive that the sound environment will change (for example, you switch from a park to a boulevard), stop the current measure and start a new one </li>
<li> There is no minimum duration, but the longer the duration is the better the exploitation; the interesting is to have measurements on a trip where the sound environment is about "homogeneous" </li>
<li> Do not hesitate to go back in the same areas, at other times of the day, at other time period of the week/year </li>
<li> Avoid measurements with strong rain or wind (or consider selecting the corresponding Tags) </li>

<li> Each person using the application becomes a contributor if he wishes</li>
<li> The set of contributions is aggregated to build a map</li>

<li> Zoom into areas containing measurements</li>
<li> Select colored hexagons to display information about the collected measurements.</li>

<p>At this stage, the presented map is based only on the raw data collected (without filtering, without processing). The objective is to collect sufficient data to produce, in a second stage, maps that are "relevant from the point of view of an acoustician", by developing new methodologies.
These maps will be uploaded later.

</h4>

<div class="panel-body">
<h5><span class="label label-primary">Answer</span></h5>
<ul>
<li> Recent work has focused on this subject. The last results show that the quality of smartphones is improving continuously and that such a device can be used for this type of application</li>
<li> Obviously, it is best to calibrate the smartphone by comparison with a reference device (see the "Calibration" menu of the application)!</li>
<li> To improve the measurement, you can use an external microphone, which you can calibrate with the application using a calibrator (if compatible)</li>
<li> Realize a measurement with the phone in hand, on foot, and, if possible, without adding noise!</li>
<li> Even without calibration, the information transmitted is of interest for our research!</li>

<h5><span class="label label-primary">Answer</span></h5>
<ul>
<li> Because you may need a "pocket sound level meter"</li>
<li> Because you can use it in your educational activities</li>
<li> Because you want to characterize your sound environment</li>
<li> Because you want to contribute to collaborative noise maps</li>
<li> Because you want to participate in a scientific project</li>
