Sun Map Clock vs Shuny Shade

Sun Map Clock is a professional simulation tool designed to track the sun's path and shadow directions at any given location and time. By simply moving the intuitive time and date sliders, you can visualize exactly how the sun will interact with a specific area throughout the year. Perfect for construction managers, real estate agents, solar panel installers, and surveyors who need accurate, reliable site data without visiting the location. KEY FEATURES - Shadow Length & Width Simulation: Enter the height and width of an object at the pin and the shadow falls on the map as a band with its real projected length (height / tan of sun altitude) and its real width. Heights run 0.5-300 m, covering high-rise towers, and widths 0.5-500 m, covering block-scale buildings. Steps of 0.1 m let you dial in exact figures for daylight explanations, right-to-light and overshadowing studies, and row-to-row spacing of solar panels. - Interactive Sun Map: Visualize the sun's direction and shadow angles on the map, and scrub through the day with the time slider to follow the sun's path. - Time Travel Sliders: Easily slide through hours, days, and seasons to see how shadows change. Sliders show clear marks for sunrise, sunset, and solstices. When you reach the end of the slider, it smoothly moves to the next day or year. - Safety & Climate Data: Check temperature, UV index, and heat alerts for safe site management and hazard prediction (KY activities). It also shows past weather records and 5-year average data (average temperature and sunny day rate). - Solar Panel Optimization: Automatically calculate the optimal tilt and azimuth for solar panels at any location. - Multi-Site Management & CSV Export: Save multiple project locations and export comprehensive sun and climate data to CSV for your reports. - Quick Share: Take screenshots of the map and data panel to share actionable instructions instantly with your team. - Day/Night Terminator: Visualize the global day and night boundary moving in real-time as you adjust the time. - Alerts per Site: Sunrise, sunset, golden hour and "the sun gets low (long shadows)", each with its own lead time, set per saved site. The sun's position is computed on the device, so alerts fire even out of signal range. - Works Offline: Weather fetched while online is stored on the device and shown where there is no signal, together with the time it was fetched — old values are never taken for current ones. Offline storage can be switched off, shows real disk usage and can be cleared. - Units Set Separately: Temperature (°C / °F), length (m / ft) and wind speed (m/s / mph) are chosen independently, because the combination differs by country. Targeted for B2B professionals, this app bypasses complex astronomical jargon and focuses directly on actionable data for your field work.

Choose where to plant, sit, or buy with clear-sky direct-sun estimates for each spot in a garden, patio, home, or rental. Shuny Shade estimates clear-sky direct sun for a chosen spot using its approximate location and recorded obstruction horizon. Use a guided camera sky scan on a supported iPhone or iPad, or use the manual horizon editor on any supported device. Shuny Shade combines that horizon with the sun’s changing path to estimate direct-sun hours for every month of the year. PLAN PLANTS AROUND THE LIGHT Turn “it seems sunny” into a useful month-by-month view. When an estimate is available, Shuny Shade shows seasonal light categories such as Full Sun, Part Sun, Part Shade, Full Shade, or Borderline. Use them to make better-informed choices about beds, containers, vegetables, flowers, and other plantings. LIGHT ISN’T ALWAYS A SIMPLE YES OR NO Some locations sit near the line between two light categories. Shuny Shade shows borderline results honestly instead of forcing false certainty, helping you weigh seasonal change and your own planting goals. COMPARE THE PLACES THAT MATTER Estimate and compare multiple spots side by side. Check the front bed against the back fence, one balcony corner against another, or possible locations for a patio. The year timeline shows seasonal patterns. Compare estimated conditions at the June and December solstices. TAKE THE RESULTS WITH YOU Create a shareable Sun Report PDF for a saved spot. Keep it with garden notes, send it to someone helping with a landscape plan, or bring it into a home or rental decision. USE SHUNY SHADE FOR • Planning garden beds and choosing plant locations • Checking a home or rental property before committing • Finding a brighter or cooler place for a patio • Comparing spots around a yard, balcony, or property HOW IT WORKS 1. Stand at the spot you want to estimate. 2. Use the guided camera scan on a supported iPhone or iPad, or draw the visible horizon by hand on any supported device. 3. Review estimated clear-sky direct-sun hours month by month. 4. Compare spots, inspect the year timeline and solstices, and export a Sun Report PDF. Shuny Shade reports estimates, not guarantees. Results describe clear-sky direct sun based on the recorded obstruction horizon, approximate location, and the sun’s path. Obstructions you mark as deciduous are estimated in both a leaf-on and a leaf-off state, chosen from the month and the latitude of the spot rather than from the specific plant, so the reported range spans both. Inside the tropics, where leaf timing does not follow that pattern, no leaf season is assigned. The estimate does not predict cloud cover, weather, plant growth, or temporary obstructions. Scan quality, horizon accuracy, location, and surroundings can affect results. Use them as a practical planning input and seek professional advice when appropriate. Core sun estimates run on-device without a Shuny Shade account. Maps and purchase services may require an internet connection. 3-day free trial. Continue with a one-time purchase. No subscription.
