VistaPro is 3D scenery generator for the Amiga, Macintosh, MS-DOS, and Microsoft Windows.It was written by John Hinkley as the follow-up to the initial version, Vista. [1] [2] The about box describes it as "a 3-D landscape generator and projector capable of accurately displaying real-world and fractal landscapes."
One passive solar sun path design problem is that although the sun is in the same relative position six weeks before, and six weeks after, the solstice, due to "thermal lag" from the thermal mass of the Earth, the temperature and solar gain requirements are quite different before and after the summer or winter solstice. Movable shutters, shades ...
Sun path, sometimes also called day arc, refers to the daily (sunrise to sunset) and seasonal arc-like path that the Sun appears to follow across the sky as the Earth rotates and orbits the Sun. The Sun's path affects the length of daytime experienced and amount of daylight received along a certain latitude during a given season.
Heliodon was designed to replicate the sun on architectural scale models through a point of light. [2] The device can shift and tilt to obtain the accurate position of the sun on any given day, time, or location. [2] In the 1960s, a heliodon was invented by Gershon Fruhling in Israel, recorded by the United States Patent Office. [3]
A scenery generator is software used to create landscape images, 3D models, and animations. These programs often use procedural generation to generate the landscapes. If not using procedural generation to create the landscapes, then normally a 3D artist would render and create the landscapes. These programs are often used in video games or movies.

Sun path polar chart; latitude based on Rotterdam. Solar access is the ability of one property to continue to receive sunlight across property lines without obstruction from another’s property (buildings, foliage or other impediment). Solar access is calculated using a sun path diagram. Sun is the source of our vision and energy.
