Comment on Show HN: A map of cafes that are in the sun

Comments

That's a great idea, but the only thing I'm not clear on is that predicting sun exposure is one thing, but taking into account slopes and surrounding buildings that might cast shadows in that area is another. I think this is designed more for flat areas and single-story buildings. This is a problem I personally encountered in the past and couldn't solve, but I'll try it out and see if it actually works.

It would be interesting to take weather forecasts into account.
