Environmental Impact Services / Municipality Services

· Sky-Glow & Light Trespass modeling: Investigation and documentation of existing or planned lighting installations in environmental or community 'sensitive' areas such as Historical neighborhoods, coastal communities. Site impact studies of land use adjacent to historical properties and neighborhoods.

· Community Compliance Audits/ Community Lighting Standards: Compliance audits of planned lighting installations or existing lighting installations in communities with lighting ordinances. Where no lighting ordinance exists Lighting Forensics can assist communities in developing enforceable lighting standards that will meet the Illuminating Engineering Society of North America's (IESNA) minimum standards and be environmentally responsible. For coastal communities, Lighting Forensics is well versed in proper lighting techniques for properties abutting coasts, marshes and rivers. Lighting Forensics provides training in code enforcement by offering procurement of professional metering equipment and training on interpretation of computer-predicted illumination reports.

· Environmental Lighting Audits/ Design Services: Parks, observatories, recreational land usage lighting design service, consultation and auditing of existing or planned lighting installations. Exterior illumination designs that cause minimal inference with existing habitat are the guiding principle in Lighting Forensics lighting designs and consultation. Computerized graphic illustrations of the planned lighting design allow the end user to quantify visually the impact of the proposed lighting installation will have on the environment.

· Security Lighting Audit: Parking lot and garage compliance audits / security lighting assessment. Whether the facility is a fast food restaurant or an underground parking garage serving a high-rise office or condominium there are minimum standards that must be met to meet the recognized standard of care. Lighting Forensics can accomplish this without creating unwanted glare, light pollution and light trespass for communities that have stringent lighting codes already in existence.
