[Radiance-general] Watching the Skies (aka Sky Model Bewilderment)

[R Fritz]

I have a pile of data from an actual test room, with more coming, and a 
Radiance model under construction. Do people have an opinion as to 
which sky model might best reflect the actual skies of Berkeley, 
California? I've got some reading ahead of me, Perez and Shirley and 
perhaps some CIE documents, but I'm wondering if anyone has perhaps 
some thoughts or cites to share. The test room is, yes, in Berkeley, 
California.

BTW, I did find the discussion of sky modeling on the list in October 
of 2003. (If anyone hasn't seen it before, look for entries titled "Sky 
Definition" in 
<http://www.radiance-online.org/pipermail/radiance-general/2003-October/date.html>.)
