[RE-wrenches] Sketchup for Solar Shading Analysis

[Jason Szumlanski]

Is anyone else using Sketchup for quick and dirty (yet surprisingly
accurate) shading analyses?

If so, I would be interested in trading notes/tips. I'm particularly
interested in some rules of thumb regarding hard shading impacts during the
early- and late-day in percentage terms. Residential analyses are not worth
anything highly scientific for the average grid-tied client. Please contact
me off-list.

Here's the video output of an analysis I just whipped up for a client
concerned about the 2-story house just to the east of his.
