Photometric analysis is the most precise and comprehensive approach to large-scale lighting projects, and it’s the most impressive weapon in a lighting expert’s arsenal. Light is inherently difficult to control, but modern lighting software makes it possible to accurately map a project space before fixture installation.
Using photometric design, lighting providers can offer clients a full picture of what their project will look like following installation. It can also provide a point of discussion and project development for clients who want to improve their fixture layout or technology.

Photometric analysis is essential for areas like parking lots. Code typically demands adherence to minimum, maximum, and mean light levels. Alleviating safety concerns and avoiding potential liabilities is well worth the bit of extra planning. It is impossible to guess which lighting technology will provide the best light for certain projects.
Whether a parking lot is being lit by large flood lights mounted on poles, wall packs mounted to buildings, bollard lights mounted in the ground, or some combination (which is typical), photometric analysis can help avoid relying on assumptions. Photometric analysis even facilitates review of the light output and can calculate distribution of different lamp types in the same luminaire.
The key to an appealing overall plan is to make sure these areas are maintained and project sufficient light. We know exactly how far every fixture will emit, and how strong its light will be at certain distances. This is ideal for parking lots and exterior lighting, as it gives designers a clear idea of how tall lighting poles should be, how much power will be required and how many fixtures will be needed.
When designing for exterior commercial lighting, it is important to maintain a safe level of illumination at night for pedestrians and drivers which can have a direct correlation to how long customers stay after dark. For cost-efficiency purposes, commercial clients will want to minimize the number of fixtures they use. Photometry ensures that the number of fixtures required for a project is kept to a minimum.
With modern photometric diagramming, the client can see what their system will look like before it is installed. This way, there are no surprises once the final product has been put in place.
Our sales and technical teams are committed to delivery of the best and most innovative lighting products for our customers.
