Abstract

We present an AR application for visualizing solar radiation data on facades of buildings, generated from LiDAR data and climatic observations. Data can be visualized using colored surfaces and glyphs. A user study revealed the proposed AR visualizations were easy to use, which can lead to leverage the potential benefits of AR visualizations: to detect errors in the simulated data, to give support to the installation of photovoltaic equipment and to raise public awareness of the use of facades for power production.
