Description

Image

There has to be a coordinate to placement as well as auto scale for the placed map.

Next most useful feature: Shadow & Sun Path Analysis
Since you already have:
✅ Floor plan placed on real satellite location
✅ Scale/orientation on the map
The natural next step is solar analysis overlay:
Show sun path arc for that specific GPS location
Animate shadow casting by time of day / season
Highlight which rooms get morning vs afternoon light
Flag rooms that are perpetually shaded or overheated
Why this is the right next feature:
The floor plan already shows a veranda, bedrooms, and living areas — orientation relative to sun is one of the most impactful design decisions an architect makes early on, and it's currently invisible in the tool.
With the lot position already georeferenced, you have everything needed — latitude/longitude is all a sun path algorithm requires.
After that, the logical sequence would be:
🌤️ Sun/shadow analysis ← next
🌧️ Prevailing wind & rainfall overlay — for ventilation and drainage planning
📐 Setback & zoning compliance checker — legal build boundaries
🏘️ Neighboring structure height import — see what actually blocks light
