Site Data: Ground Reflectance

This is a measure of the ground albedo (Kr). Typical values are listed below, or in CIBSE Guide A2, Table A2.31. It is used in APcalc and ApacheSim for the calculation of ground reflected radiation on building facades.
There is some built-in assistance with setting the reflectance level. Select the more info button and a table with sample values will appear.
