John | Setting up the site for a correct shadow analysis simulationJohn 2015-05-11 10:51:41 This interesting case was put through to our Forum by our users QUESTION: is there a way of geo-locating the building site so as to simulate and analyze projected shadows? ANSWER: to set up the site's coordinates simply input the values in the specific geo-location fields as described: - open the Project Navigator's General Data node; - type in the site's latitude and longitude data; Then correctly set the North direction to get the most accurate results; Now all you need to do is set the time of the day in the "Shadows" box. |
