Rights of light surveyors accept that the light from 0.2% of the skydome provides one lumen of light and that is sufficient for ordinary needs. This paper examines the validity of this by examining the original methods of calculation and comparing these with some more recent methodologies. It can be shown that there is a case for reassessing the methodologies currently accepted by the courts and for proposing a new more accurate method. [Taken from paper abstract].
