Tóm tắt

AbstractA technique is described whereby sky view‐factors in urban locations can be estimated from graphs once azimuth and elevation angles of surrounding buildings are known. The graphs are easy to use and give results sufficiently accurate to enable their use when more elaborate computing or photographic equipment is unavailable.
