Radiance glare program

GLARE(1)                                                              GLARE(1)

NAME

       glare - perform glare and visual comfort calculations

SYNOPSIS

       glare [ glarefile [ picture [ octree ] ] ]

DESCRIPTION

       Glare  is  an  interactive script for executing programs used to locate
       glare sources and compute glare indices and visual comfort probability.
       If  no  glarefile is given, the program prompts the user for a one.  If
       the file does not exist, glare asks the user some questions  about  the
       scene  in question then runs findglare(1) to compute values to store in
       the file.  Glare then presents the user a menu of available glare index
       calculations.   After choosing a calculation, glare offers to store the
       result (usually not useful) or plot the information (but only for  mul-
       tiple glare angles).

       If  you  are  creating  a new glarefile, it usually works best to start
       with a displayed image for reference during the interrogation.
