ASSET introduction

What is the ASSET?

The ASSET is a proven system for quantifying shading at a site. The ASSET provides a complete panoramic picture of the site with the path of the sun superimposed.

The computer does the calculations for you -- and prints out the results, giving you a number for shading at the bottom line.
