1. An acoustic analysis system comprising:
an acoustic sensor array configured to output acoustic data based on one or more acoustic signals received from a scene during a period of time; and
a processor in communication with the acoustic sensor array, wherein the processor is configured to:
receive the acoustic data from the acoustic sensor array, wherein at least a portion of the acoustic data represents an intermittent acoustic signal that was present in the scene at different times and not present at other times; and
generate a display image comprising acoustic image data based on the acoustic data received from the acoustic sensor array, wherein the display image includes a visual representation of the intermittent acoustic signal, the visual representation having a visual characteristic that reflects a presence characteristic of the intermittent acoustic signal in the scene during the period of time.
