Geospatial Shadows & Chronolocation Forensics

Reverse-engineer time of day, sun altitude, and coordinates of photos using shadow ratio trigonometry.

Input object height and shadow length to calculate solar altitude angle and sun azimuth bearing. Estimate candidate local and UTC capture windows, convert coordinates across Decimal Degrees, DMS, MGRS, and UTM formats, and pivot to interactive SunCalc and satellite mapping layers.

Features

  • Shadow ratio to solar altitude calculation
  • True solar azimuth & time-of-day estimator
  • DD / DMS / MGRS / UTM coordinate converter
  • Interactive SunCalc & satellite map integration
