AW: Islamic time measurement

Hello Dan, I don’t have sources for that, my approach is a more a practical one – which is a guess ‘only’: Many hints in our old scripts as the bible or the Qur’an are very practical ones relying on the given society and its well-being as a group. You are not allow to eat pork because

Dear Thibaud, for my webcam SW (Raspi, Cam, Python, stand alone, FTP) I developed several functions (equation of time, time calculations, LAT from UTC with GPS position, etc.). To be honest: I am not a professional SW developer, but the code works within my package “Ready to go Sdcam” (Sun

AW: A dial in the movie "A Hidden Life" (2019)

Hi sundialists, as Jägerstätter has been born 50 km West of my home town and the mentioned military base in Enns is 50 km East I will try to figure it out. But: A) As I followed the description most of the film has been shot in South Tyrol/North Italy and not in the Austrian Alps

Dear Frank, I think the most important thing is: WOZ (LAT) does not comply to an absolute position: it always defines the local time defined by the local Sun position only. So WOZ (LAT) in Grieskirchen is different from WOZ (LAT) in Greenwich or from WOZ (LAT) in Gmünd/Lower Austria which is

Dear Frank, here there is the correct meaning and translation: * WOZ … Wahre Ortszeit = LAT … Local Apparent Time * MOZ … Mittlere Ortszeit = LMT … Local Mean Time * MEZ … Mitteleuropäische Zeit = CET … Central European Time * MEST … Mitteleuropäische

observers. This is valid for sundials using the bypassing shadow of the Gnomon or the moving flare of any rectangle or circular iris. 2) I estimate a reading accuracy of the Kepleruhr by +/-15 sec (at high noon only): There is a wandering flare of 2 cm (+/- penumbra) with two side edges on a line

AW: New indoor sundial with lens/mirror

Hello Bill, yes, under normal conditions the hour lines are straight. But in the case of Wallern I implemented three different angles at the mirror – it is not flat: Due to the narrow space I had to bend the summer solstice lines directing equinox as well as the winter solstice lines. And

Re: Re: Die Grieskirchner Kepleruhr

Hi Bill, I am the person behind the KEPLERUHR. Unfortunately the language of the web page http://kepleruhr.at is mostly German only - have to add English too... The mirrors do not have adjustment facilities - they are fixed to the nodus and the rough adjustment has been done by a rubber
