Audio fingerprinting is a technique used to identify and match audio recordings based on their unique characteristics. It involves creating a condensed representation of an audio signal that can be used to quickly compare and match against other audio recordings. The fingerprinting process involves analyzing the audio signal to extract certain features, such as spectral content, tempo, and rhythm, among other things. In this paper, we present SpectroMap, an open-source GitHub repository for audio fingerprinting written in Python programming language. It is composed of a peak search algorithm that extracts topological prominences from a spectrogram via time-frequency bands. In this paper, we introduce the algorithm functioning with two experimental applications in a high-quality urban sound dataset and environmental audio recordings to describe how it works and how effective it is in handling the input data. Finally, we have posed two Python scripts that would reproduce the proposed case studies in order to ease the reproducibility of our audio fingerprinting system.
