NC-v4 SSc6:Light pollution reduction

Light reflection from the facade

Ligting engineer asked me if he should include light reflection from the facade in the ligthing simulation for Light trespass Option 2. Could anyone confirm this? Our project is in LZ2 and is a zero-lot line project. We have facade lighting and we wanted to confrim if light refleced from the facade should also be inculded in the simulation.

This lighting credit has only ever measured the direct light from light fixtures. I think this credit is already overly complex.  Having to worry about documenting indirect light would be a burden too much for most projects.
