Given the impact the Sun ☀️ has on all our lives, a tool to predict its availability is surprisingly missing – Shadowmap is here to change that. It visualizes sunlight and solar shadows based on 3D data in a worldwide interactive maps app.
What a great and unique idea! Runs super smooth in my browser too. I can see this being useful with dozens of current problems. I have tried it on a couple of buildings I have lived in; from Lisbon, Vienna to Hong Kong and the shadows are amazingly accurate. Congrats on the launch and good luck for the future!
@sascha_thn Totally give it a try then! Shadowmap Pro is probably a smart investment as well. Were/in which city do you live?

Many chinese believes in "Feng sui", also known as chinese geomancy. And one of the factors is sunlight. This tool could be helpful to find a dream home that matches good feng sui 😅
@ken_moo I love feng sui! In all seriousness, do you see this as a potential market for Shadowmap? 🤔

Really great app and very handy, especially when you are a filmmaker as I am. I allready used the beta App version to prepare a filmshooting and when i was visiting a real estate property. Looking forward to the Release.
@pregenun Haha, thank you John! Which software are you usually using?

@molzer I'm only in my second year so for 3d stuff I'm still using Sketchup sometimes, together with autocad and Infraworks, but those are way more difficult haha
edit: Google Earth could help too
