Tools| Solar Calculator (Beta) |
The Solar Calculator is a Google Maps application that allows photographers (or anyone else for that matter) to predict the position of the sun at any location, and at any date and time. Also plotted on the map are the approximate positions of the sun at both sunrise and sunset, so there is no excuse for missing that perfect 'golden hour' shot because the sun is in the 'wrong' position. Unlike many applications of this type, the interface is simple to use and can be operated without an advanced degree in astronomy!
Please note that at the moment this application is brand new, and as such is still undergoing testing. If you happen to receive incorrect information from the map, please report it to me so that the error can be corrected.
