A Mobile App to Estimate Sky View Factor

Assessing the sky view factor or the intensity of solar radiation that a place receives is valuable to various walks of life. A solar engineer would want to know the intensity a place can garner to decide whether or not to place a solar panel. On another track, a person maintaining a small garden would also benefit from the intensity information to help the plants grow well. Instantly reporting the light intensity levels is the key to help users achieve their respective goals. The approach that this project aims to employ involves building an intuitive iOS mobile app, which users can use on their iPhones and get the results promptly.
