[Radiance-general] Glare Calculation

You can now even do annual daylight glare probability calculations using Daysim 3.1 which contains a new subprogram written by Jan Wienold called gen_dgp_profile.

Hi Alexis,

How did you set up your view for RCP_c3.pic? Findglare expects a fisheye (180h x 180v) view. If it does not get it then it reports an error/warning message.

Note also there is the new program evalglare for glare analysis:

 Hi everyone,
 
 
I'm doing a glare study with radiance and Ecotect.
 
Fristly i've created my 3d model in Ecotect, then i've exported it in radiance to calculte the lumiance in cd/m².
No problem for this part.
 
Secondly I'm using the function findglare and then glarendx, to compute a glare index. 
When i'm writing my function findglare in my command window like this: findglare -p RCP_c3.pic > glaresult.glr
I've got en error message: "findglare: picture read error"
 
or if i'm using the method glare, i've got the same problem: "must have view or picture"
 
How can i fix it?
 
Thanks for your help,
 
Regards,
 
Alexis Loubeyre.
