Real-time noise monitoring for everyone

SiteHive devices and software are designed to be used by anyone, regardless of their level of expertise. From casual users to technical consultants, everyone benefits from using SiteHive’s noise monitoring services.

With SiteHive you don’t need to be an expert, or have experience managing noise or acoustics.

Automated classification with AI

SiteHive’s AI-powered Audio Classifier identifies the source of noises in real time, and immediately classifies them. You can save hours of time and see immediately what noise is caused by construction work, and what’s not.

Directional noise maps

Real-time mapping of directional noise shows where noise is coming from at a glance, and how wind speed and direction influence it.

“Eyes and ears” on site 24/7

With SiteHive noise monitoring services you can see images and hear audio of events directly from your site in real-time, from wherever you are. So you don’t need to be on site – leave that to SiteHive while you manage other issues.

Automated alerts

SiteHive noise monitoring services automatically alert you to noise events based on the rules and thresholds you set. SiteHive systems allow you to be proactive and ensure minimal disruption to your operations.

Instant PDF reports

SiteHive Enviro generates elegant PDF reports instantly, allowing data to be shared with teams and stakeholders in an easy-to-understand format.

Automatic analyses

SiteHive software calculates and tracks daily averages, and shows key statistics and trends across time. You can calculate background noise levels (RBLs) with one click, so it’s great for setting baselines and planning. SiteHive’s noise measurement services make it simple to analyse noise data, delivering actionable statistics that help manage noise effectively.

Share data with stakeholders

A stakeholder view enables a curated view of data to be shared with stakeholders and teams. SiteHive’s solutions provide real-time insights that allow people to collaborate and make informed decisions. Data sharing and stakeholder engagement are streamlined, making noise monitoring more effective.

Manage dust and noise together

The SiteHive Hexanode Multi device allows you to manage both noise and dust using the same device. And you can manage all the data together within SiteHive Enviro. So one small device in the field delivers all the data, images and audio you need to manage noise and dust effectively.

All your data, together in one place

With SiteHive noise monitoring services all your information is at your fingertips, controlled through a graphical dashboard. An interactive map shows you exactly what’s happening on site, alongside time-based graphs of all your data.  

You can see all your monitored data alongside other critical information. For example:

• Weather forecast and actual is provided from the nearest BOM or your own weather station; 
• Attended data can be added directly into the system using the SiteHive Enviro web app, including uploading photos and other materials;
• The Daily Notes feature allows you to add notes and specifics to explain events or update teams.
