Abstract

The study of luminance distribution over the facades with architectural lighting allows us to estimate the perception of architectural objects, to analyse the quality of light solutions. The relevance of luminance characteristics estimation in night-time urban conditions has been increasing over the years, in particular, for cities where the development direction of lighting environment aims at increase of the number of illuminated objects and where there is no developed strategy of lighting environment development. Using the example of 11 central streets of Tula, the article describes the comprehensive approach to analysis of the quality of architectural lighting. Using a CCD matrix-based luminance meter, the luminance characteristics of facades were estimated.
