Noise point is the location to be evaluated for its environmental noise, such as houses, factories, etc. Before noise calculation, add a noise point first.
Before adding a noise point, ensure there is a WTG group file (kml format) saved in your computer. In addition, install the Google Earth application to define points.
Note: The steps demonstrated here in Google Earth are only for functional explanation, and may not reflect the application's latest appearance and functions.
