English abstract:
Intelligent control systems in architectural lighting require an integrated treatment of daylight and artificial light. Toward this end, high-resolution representations of the sky dome luminance distribution pattern are critical. Specifically, predictive control approaches require that sky conditions are accurately captured. Consequently, multiple efforts have been made in the past to extimate the intensity of luminance and radiance emanating from specific patches of the sky hemisphere. The present contribution focuses on the evaluation of various sky models based on a large repository of of high resolution measurements. The findings suggest that existing models must be substantially improved.
