Model attributes (Shadow Overlay)
The Shadow Overlay's model calculations depend on a number of calculation-wide parameters. These parameters are available as attributes of the Shadow Overlay and can be modified as such.
| Icon | Attribute | Unit | Range | Description | Default value |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DATES | time in milliseconds | Dates specify the day and time used to calculate sun angles. | 1375444800000 | ||
| MAX_FOLIAGE_RADIUS | m | 0 to 1000 | The maximum radius of foliage. | 100 | |
| MAX_SHADOW_DISTANCE | m | 100 to 1000 | The maximum length of a shadow. | 500 | |
| SUN_ALTITUDE | angle (0-90°) | 0 to 90 | The sun angle up from the horizon. | 49.71 | |
| SUN_AZIMUTH | geo angle (0-360°) | -1.7976931348623157E308 to 1.7976931348623157E308 | The angle of the sun along the horizon. | 140.03 |
Notes
- When the DATES attribute is configured for multiple timeframes, the Hourly, Sun, and Wind attributes should have an equal amount of entries. When using the Heat Overlay configuration wizard, the necessary entries are created automatically.
