Optimal projection to model solar shadows
Geographic Information SystemsWhat is the projection of the shadow?
Projection refers to the externalization (sending out) of the shadow—the unconscious aspects of yourself, such as positive or negative needs, feelings or ideas you are not aware of having.
How do you calculate sun position shadow?
The measurement of the length of the shadow depends on the height of the obstacle and the elevation of the sun, the formula is: length shadow = object height/tan ( sun elevation ).
Can we use the position of shadows to tell the approximate time of day?
As the day progresses, the pattern of light and shadow on the globe will change, as will those on real Earth. By looking at the pattern of sunlight and shadow on your globe, you can determine the approximate time of day at your location.
