Specifying Controllable Low CCT and Amber Outdoor Lighting to Combat Light Pollution
The presenters will provide specification language, case studies and tools for specifying controllable low CCT and Amber outdoor lighting to combat light pollution, including DLC resources to help practitioners gain more confidence in their analyses, design, and selection processes.
What you will learn:
• How low CCT and amber luminaires reduce sky glow
• How to conduct calculations of off-site lumens with weighted spectral factors
• Describe the impact of lighting controls on light pollution mitigation and energy savings
• Integrate provided language content for nonwhite products into your master specification
