Shadows from new buildings make public spaces less inviting

Shadowmap allows you to simulate shadows cast by tall buildings in real time, helping you identify potential issues with reduced sunlight in public spaces and nearby structures. By visualizing these effects during the planning phase, you can adjust building designs and placements to ensure that both public and private areas receive adequate sunlight, enhancing the usability and energy efficiency of the spaces.

For future-forward planning I need to ensure optimal solar access and energy efficiency

Shadowmap Studio enables you to optimize building orientation and placement by visualizing how new developments will affect solar access. You can ensure that buildings receive maximum natural light, support passive solar heating, and maintain the efficiency of existing solar panels. By integrating real-time data, the tool helps you make informed decisions that enhance energy efficiency while respecting solar rights in dense urban environments.

Sometimes the sunlight exposure throughout the year won't be estimated correctly due to a missed mountain or large structure in medium distance

Make use of Shadowmap Studio's high-quality global 3D data, with a high-res digital twin and satellite imagery to never miss major obstruction impact within your project surroundings again.

It's hard to preserve aesthetic and cultural integrity in historic areas

Natural light and shadow are important aspects of historic areas. Shadowmaphelps you assess the visual impact of new developments on historic and culturally significant areas in real time. By simulating sunlight, shadows, and glare, you can make informed decisions that protect the aesthetic and cultural character of these zones.
