Toras puts this sun path over your site in 3D, with the neighbouring buildings and the terrain. Move the time and watch the shadows fall, then draw your building right there.
Open this site in TorasA sun path diagram is a map of the sky seen from your site. It shows where the sun is at every hour, on any day of the year, so you can place windows, shading and outdoor spaces with the sun in mind.
North is at the top. The letters around the edge are the compass directions, as on a site plan.
The closer a point is to the centre, the higher the sun. The centre is straight overhead; the dashed rings mark 30° and 60°.
The longest day runs closest to the centre and the shortest day furthest out. Every other day of the year falls between them.
Follow your day’s curve from sunrise on the east side to sunset on the west to see where the sun is at 8 am, at noon or at 4 pm.

Sun positions come from standard astronomical formulas, so sunrise and sunset land within a minute or two of published times. Hills and nearby buildings are not taken into account here; in Toras they are.
