[Radiance-general] modeling hourly daylight illuminance/daylight factor values for a year

[Ramana Koti]

Hi all,

I ask this question with a very basic knowledge of radiance's functioning so
excuse me if the question is not framed well.

Is it possible to program/loop radiance modeling to produce daylight
illuminance or daylight factor values at various points on a work surface of
a space for each hour through the year? (24x365 = 8760 values for a point on
a work plane)

If any, what are the constraints to such a process and how can they be
overcome so as not to model each hour individually?

I am using Radiance on Cygwin.

Thanks in advance,
Ramana.
