TreeShadeAdvisor

Tree Shade Simulation Software

Model trees and inspect how simulated shadows change with position, dimensions, date, and time. TreeShadeAdvisor supports questions where the location and movement of tree shade matter.

  1. A shadow changes direction and extent with the modeled sun position.
  2. Spacing and crown dimensions affect where footprints meet or remain separate.
  3. Repeatable scenarios help inspect one variable at a time.
  4. Place and size trees: Define positions plus trunk and crown dimensions.
  5. Set temporal context: Choose location, dates, hours, and simulation step.
  6. Explore output: Inspect shade in 2D and 3D and review available maps, metrics, and reports.
  7. Inspect one layout across a day: Run a fixed layout in the morning, at midday, and in the afternoon. Move or resize selected trees and repeat the same sequence to reveal what changed.
  8. Parameters: Tree coordinates, Trunk and crown dimensions, Location, Date, hours, and step
  9. What to inspect: Inspect shade maps, the complementary 3D view, and available metrics or reports.
