Solar Watch: Essential Digital Tool for Professionals and Enthusiasts
Solar Watch is an essential digital tool for photographers, architects, prospective house buyers, garden enthusiasts, and solar panel installers. Developed by Zuzana Eskinasi, this iPhone app provides a comprehensive range of professional functionalities in an intuitive and sleek interface.
One of the standout features of Solar Watch is its Augmented Reality (AR) projection of the position of the sun and moon at your current location. This allows users to visualize the solar and lunar path in real-time, making it easier to plan and optimize their activities.
The app also offers extensive 2D and 3D visualization of the solar and lunar path, compass mode, and a shadow simulator. With just a glance, users can determine which side of a building receives the most hours of sunlight per day, aiding in decisions related to architecture, gardening, and solar panel placement.
Solar Watch provides users with comprehensive data tables, including sun positions, day and night lengths, sunrise and sunset times, golden hour, dusk, and more. It also includes information on solar and lunar eclipses, solstices, equinoxes, lunar phases, moonrise, and moonset times.
One of the standout features of Solar Watch is its interactive 3D shadow simulator. Users can position a customizable 3D object on the map and have the app simulate its shadow at any time of the year, allowing for accurate shadow analysis and planning.
The free version of Solar Watch provides all the necessary information for your current time and location. For global information and access to any time of year, users can upgrade to the paid Premium version, which is ad-free.
Solar Watch is a must-have tool for professionals and enthusiasts alike, offering a wealth of information and features to optimize solar and lunar-related activities.
