NatureSoundMap:線上自然音效分佈圖平臺是一個致力於分享地球上自然界中各種生物聲音的平臺，你可以通過世界地圖來查詢世界各地的聲音，不僅可以檢視所謂位置、圖片還可以線上聽聲音。

NatureSoundMap專案擁有眾多粉絲和志願者，他們分佈在世界各地，通過專業的錄音裝置來錄製不同地區的各種聲音，讓你足不出後就可以聽到來自世界各地的自然音效。

A group of professional nature recordists from around the globe have collaborated to develop Nature Soundmap, an enjoyable and interactive way of exploring the natural sounds of our planet. Combining high-quality field recordings with the latest satellite imagery, the project brings together some of nature’s most beautiful, interesting and inspiring sounds.

Many recordings in the collection are ‘binaural’ soundscapes, in other words, stereo recordings made with two microphones which capture sound in 360 degrees. This recording technique most accurately imitates the natural experience you would hear with your own two ears and provides a realistic representation of all of the sounds in a particular habitat or location. If you sit back, close you eyes and relax while listening to a well-recorded soundscape, it doesn’t take long before you feel like you’re actually there! A good pair of headphones certainly helps enhance the experience.
