The work is motivated by the project Terra Dynamica funded by the French government. We present a state of the art of the virtual urban sound spaces emphasizing various types of virtual cities and their relationships to auditory space. We then discuss the choice of a sound engine, sound spatialization and scene description languages as ongoing works. %G English %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01055607/document %2 https://inria.hal.science/hal-01055607/file/A_Sound_Engine_for_Virtual_Cities.pdf %L hal-01055607 %U https://inria.hal.science/hal-01055607 %~ CNAM %~ IFIP-LNCS %~ IFIP %~ IFIP-LNCS-6243 %~ IFIP-ICEC %~ IFIP-2010 %~ CEDRIC-CNAM %~ HESAM-CNAM %~ HESAM
