Show shadow line from an object of X height

User selects the height of an object - maybe representing a tree or a building. SunCalc calculates the length of the shadow and displays it from the location (it would be the opposite of the orange sun position line). This would be extremely...

Thanks, I'll consider this! Seems useful, the only hard thing is making a good simple UI for this.

Add an option to display time in local timezone.

Currently SunCalc shows all times in the visitor's timezone. It would be great to make an option to display them in local timezone (tied to the current location).

Use elevation information from Google Maps API v3

Landscape features (such as mountains) can greatly affect sunrise/sunset time. Since Google does provide elevation information, it makes sense to use it to adjust sunrise/sunset time (and even sunrise/sunset location a little bit when it touches...

put equinox, winter & summer solstice buttons

Buttons that, when clicked, would move the sunrise/sunset lines where they would be at equinox and the summer and winter solstice. That would avoid changing the calendar to know what's the sun path during the extremes of sunlight (winter and...

Topographic information to avoid mountains effects

Sunrise and sunset can be affected by the presence of high mountains near our position. This can be solved using our X, Y, Z position and topographic relieve of the area which can alter the actual hours of sunrise or sunset.

show the optimal solar panel direction !!

Show the optimal direction for solar panels to point. I guess that would be solar noon ? Also, I have IE 7 and the time slider is off the screen to the right. Thanks Philip

tide time table

Very useful for surfers etc. Also a boon for photographers and the like for capturing the right type of sunset shot ! A big " ask " I know, but would be an outstanding addition.

Show duration of time periods in detailed information box

It takes a while to substract two time values to see, in example, the duration of daylight period, so it will be useful to show it somehow in detailed information box
