Could anyone kindly check whether the following table of coordinates
(attached) is correct, for an analemmatic sundial for location at latitude
+35.9215 degrees.
Size of Semi-major axis = 2 metres.
1 position for gnomon (person) calculated for average of solar declinations
between 26
Thanks to all who replied to my query!
it's been very helpful.
I live 0.454 degrees west of the 15degrees meridian, and I did not bother
to include this 2 minute longitude correction, in order to read CET
directly... with the large width of an analemmatic's gnomon... [depends
upon oneself
I found this website which gives a lot of useful information on the way
stone is best preserved.
