TOWARDS AN OPTIMIZATION OF URBAN LIGHTING THROUGH A COMBINED APPROACH OF LIGHTING AND ROAD BUILDING ACTIVITIES

Abstract

The objective of this work is to develop tools and methods for managers, lighting designers and road builders to optimize lighting both in interurban and urban areas. The goal is a complete characterization of the photometry of a large pavement sample panel, according to the criteria usually used in lighting such as Q0 and S1 and a characterization with an observation angle more adapted to the urban environment. In this contribution, the results of the initial characterisation of the pavement sample panel at 1° are presented.
