cadmovie839 – Solar Study Part 1
Solar Study From an Image File. You can create a very quick solar study by using an image file. it does not matter where you get the image file from, but if you do get the image file from Google Earth, then you can be sure that North is straight up the page. This has an advantage when you place your sun.

Another use for the creating of a solar study from an image file could be to see whether you can place solar panels on the roof of the building and whether they will be shaded from adjoining buildings. I recently demonstrated Vectorworks to a client who wanted to do just this.
