float Skybright::getLuminance	(	float	cosDistMoon,
		float	cosDistSun,
		float	cosDistZenith
	)		const

Compute the luminance at the given position.

Parameters:

cosDistMoon	cos(angular distance between moon and the position)
cosDistSun	cos(angular distance between sun and the position)
cosDistZenith	cos(angular distance between zenith and the position)

void Skybright::setDate	(	int	year,
		int	month,
		float	moonPhase
	)

Set the sky date to use for atmosphere computation.

Parameters:

year	the year in YYYY format
month	the month: 1=Jan, 12=Dec
moonPhase	the moon phase in radian 0=Full Moon, PI/2=First Quadrant/Last Quadran, PI=No Moon

void Skybright::setLocation	(	float	latitude,
		float	altitude,
		float	temperature = 15.f,
		float	relativeHumidity = 40.f
	)

Set the position parameters to use for atmosphere computation.

Parameters:

latitude	observer latitude in radian
altitude	observer altitude in m
temperature	temperature in deg. C
relativeHumidity	air humidity in %

void Skybright::setSunMoon	(	float	cosDistMoonZenith,
		float	cosDistSunZenith
	)

Set the moon and sun zenith angular distance (cosin given) and precompute what can be This function has to be called once before any call to getLuminance()

Parameters:

cosDistMoonZenith	cos(angular distance between moon and zenith)
cosDistSunZenith	cos(angular distance between sun and zenith)
