The new evaluation tools at a glance
The UFR value represents a holistic approach to assess light pollution. This value considers the ULR value and the additional reflective luminous flux on the adjacent surfaces or buildings. In addition to the calculation output, the UFR value is also displayed as a visual light dome and the coloured scaling makes it easier to quantify the achieved value.
