Overlap Area Analysis (single tree)
As part of the ArborShadow Accuracy Tests.
For this test I created 10 different tree shadow sizes (using a single tree) and ensured each one overlaid a reference area. The resulting overlap area calculation produced by ArborShadow is then compared with the same calculation
as produced by AutoCAD.
For this test I created 10 different tree shadow sizes (using a single tree) and ensured each one overlaid a reference area. The resulting overlap area calculation produced by ArborShadow is then compared with the same calculation
as produced by AutoCAD.
The difference between each value was then calculated as a percentage of the AutoCAD value and plotted (see below).
The difference for each sample is tiny (less than half of 1 percent).
