520 _aThis doctoral thesis proposes a need to re-evaluate the basis of assessment of the sufficiency of daylight in rights to light cases where a reduction or loss of daylight may lead to a claim for damages. The author challenges the established methodology for calculating reductions and seeks to explore the options for viable alternatives that are suitable for both the negotiation of compensation and advising the court. The original research into the subject is repeated and compared against other techniques to help develop a new model of calculation that will allow surveyors to offer the most accurate advice possible to interested parties. Contains appendices and detailed statistical analysis.
