Abstract
This chapter presents results of surveys conducted with blind people and analysed sound signals necessary in the development of the method of teaching spatial orientation to people with impaired vision. The survey was conducted to identify the most important problems faced by people with impaired vision living in a large urban agglomeration and to determine the impact, type and nature of sounds generated in the city in terms of spatial orientation. On this basis, more than 1700 sound situations of the city that are characteristic of a large urban agglomeration were selected for registering. The recorded sounds from characteristic places, vehicles and sound events were analysed in order to create a library of sounds that will be used to teach spatial orientation.
