Marine Mammal Mitigation Decision Aid (M3DA)
Project Description
MAI has been cooperating with Rite Solutions, Inc. to combine the Acoustic Integration Model © (AIM) with the Rite-View visualization software and the Vista transmission loss engine. In this portion of the project, we added the ability to simultaneously model acoustic transmission from multiple sources simultaneously within a single animation.
This new software capability was applied to the analysis of a multiship Navy training exercise. The predicted sound pressure levels (SPL) and sound exposure levels (SEL) were calculated for marine mammals in the area.
This work has been performed as a SBIR for NAVSEA IWS5A.
