What we are considering next is on a separate page, without dates. What the tool does today in full: Facts; how it is checked against AGi32: Verification.
2026-11-05 · Pole layouts for new lots and added poles
- Draw where poles may and may not go; it searches for the fewest new poles (1 to 6, one model and one height) that meet your horizontal targets and rechecks the top three with a full calculation.
- The result says whether every layout with fewer poles was tried; otherwise it says the layout cannot be called the fewest.
- Existing lots: keep every existing pole as it is and search for the fewest added poles.
- Setbacks and local height limits are asked once, with their source, and go into the report appendix. You confirm each pole base before the final run.
- Limits: pole bases only (arms, foundations and ground conditions are not modelled); tested on synthetic sites.
2026-11-04 · Property-line light, GR glare, BUG and zonal lumens
- Direct vertical illuminance at sample points on the property line, against the limits you enter, each with its source.
- GR (CIE 112) at up to 8 observer points you choose, as a reported value, not a pass/fail.
- LCS zonal lumens and B-U-G rating (TM-15-20 Appendix A) of each luminaire, disclosed for information.
- None of these is a compliance determination.
2026-11-03 · Public launch: self-service sign-up
- Any company can sign up with an email link: 30 calculations per organization, up to 5 per day.
- Upload your own IES files; each is checked by the engine before you can enable it.
- On the poles you place, it picks the luminaire and aiming among your candidates, or says none meets your targets.
- Result page, customer report (HTML and PDF) and a ZIP package with point-by-point CSVs and an installation table, in English or Chinese.
