Description
The goal of this project is to integrate in-situ sky quality measurements and satellite data products derived from the suomi national polar-orbiting partnership satellite (suomi-NPP) into the planning, administration, and enforcement of puerto rico's (PR's) light pollution abatement zones (FIG. 1 ). These zones are defined and established by law and the regulation for the control and prevention of light pollution (regulation# 8493 of june 27, 2014). According to the lighting research center (WWW.LRC.RPI.EDU), although the goal may be to eliminate light pollution, in some locations light pollution cannot be avoided altogether. The environmental consequences of the pollution, however, need not be equally detrimental across all locations. The commission internationale DE l'eclairage (CIE) has outlined four environmental zones to establish a basis for outdoor lighting regulations (CIE 1997). The environmental zone rating can be used to help ensure that the lighting goals of an environment are appropriately defined and met, but not exceeded. The LLLU01INATING engineering society of north america (iesna) has adopted the concept of environmental zones (described in table 1) and recommends their use in developing new outdoor lighting (iesna 1999). In some states legislation is being considered that would restrict outdoor lighting by environmental zone.
