Hi Team ,

I’m relatively new to Cesium and have taken a look at the documentary as well as the source code of the software. The ShadowMap seems to handle the calculation of shadows in relation to the sun as a light source. Can you share any formula details to find how much percentage of shadow is visible on building.

We do have a set of tools built on CesiumJS to do this kind of analysis:

This is currently available as a separate commercial package, but should be coming to Cesium ion sometime in the next few months.
