FAQs about SSc1 :

My project doesn’t qualify for LT Sensitive Land Protection. Is it still eligible for this credit?

I have a zero-lot line project in a dense urban area. How should I approach documenting our team’s site assessment?

What is required to document this credit?

Some aspects of our site analysis didn't end up impacting design. How should I explain that in my documentation?

Hospitality-NC-v4 SSc1:Site assessment

Seasonal sun angles

I would like to ask for a maybe trivial clarification, 

What does "Seasonal sun angles (North, South, East, West)" stand for?  Does It mean altitude degrees? 
I do not understand the reference to cardinal points

 

Thank you in advance

It does refer to altitude degrees, how high the sun is in the sky in summer vs winter. I am actually not sure what the reference to the cardinal directions is - probably refers to each face of the building and how the sun hits that facade?

Ok, thank you Emliy,  Yes the cardinal directions could probably refer to facades but is a bit misleading
