Hello,
I’m curious if anyone’s come across a Sketchup plugin that can perform accurate photometric analysis ie. lux-level readings…? The equivalent to Relux or Dialux…?
something like that maybe ?
Lightup does it:
I happen to have almost 20 years providing photometric layouts. I will occasionally search for an extension, but nothing ever comes up. VRay in Studio allows for using .ies files for light fixtures which is nice, but nothing that would be able to replace AGi32. Which is a shame because AGi32 sucks for anything other than calculations.
Haven’t used it for a long time but Lightup will give you that feedback , l am rusty on the terms but you can determine light levels within your building and also total accumulative solar radiation in external spaces… eg levels of sun exposure in a landscape over the year in a colour map. that was very useful in my urban planning tasks
