The natural cycle for light is to arrive from the sun and sky during the day, and from the stars and m

24、oon at night, with gradual changes between dark and light.1However, man-made lighting has changed that natural cycle in numerous ways. While recognizing the many ben-efits of electric lighting for seeing tasks, safety and security, it is important to also recognize some of the secondary effects: Ele

25、ctric lights cannot light the sky as the sun does, therefore the nighttime “ceiling” is typically relatively dark, resulting in higher contrasts compared with any light or lighted surface. The duration of lighting has increased; in some areas there is never any real darkness, which might have a prof

26、ound impact on natural cycles. Too much light and/or certain wavelengths at night can affect peoples sleep and circadian cycle. Plants and nocturnal animals can be adversely affected as well. Non shielded outdoor lighting can be observed at great distances; nighttime visual clutter can be aesthetica

27、lly disruptive. The eye works differently at low light levels than at high light levels. Once eyes have adapted to low light levels, they are very sensitive to white light and will lose their low-level adaptation almost immediately. Adaptation effects have implications for both safety and comfort. T

28、otal dark adaptation takes about 30 minutes to be complete, whereas light adaptation happens very quickly, usually in less than a minute. People experience different emotions related to the night environment. The quality of lighting affects how people feel while viewing dramatic scenery, enjoying an

29、 evening of quiet relaxation, being spectators at sporting events and outdoor entertainment venues, and moving with security and confidence through a nighttime environment. Nighttime tasks, such as playing sports or driving automobiles, have very specific lighting requirements so people can perform

30、these tasks safely and precisely. More light is not always better light for these purposes.When the need for darkness conflicts with others desire or need for light, the control of light becomes an issue to be governed by the use of ordinances and bylaws. Good lighting design finds a work-able balan

31、ce between the goal of nighttime use of the environment and constraints imposed by fac-tors such as health, aesthetics, and environmental concerns. This Recommended Practice will provide guidance in finding that balance.The environmental effects of lighting should also be considered. While these iss

32、ues are addressed in more detail in other publications (see IES TM-18-08 Light and Human Health2)some of them affect deci-sions about the spectral distribution of outdoor light-ing. Light pollution is also a sustainability issue since it affects the use of energy, enjoyment of the natural nighttime

33、sky, and may have a relationship to cer-tain biodiversity issues (see IES DG-22 Sustainable Lighting: An Introduction to the Environmental Impacts of Lighting3). These concerns include: The addition of any electric light into the nocturnal environment that might have negative environmental consequen

34、ces.Figure 1: Faade lighting aimed down also illuminates the sidewalk. Roosevelt Place, Longmont CO (Image courtesy of N. Clanton).2IES RP-33-14 Short-wavelength light, because of greater atmospheric scattering, disproportionately increases sky glow. Aggregation of short wavelength outdoor light sou

35、rces can degrade night sky quality. Light pollution near observatories can have severe negative effects on astronomical research.1.2 OverviewThe intent of this Recommended Practice is to address the design issues related to outdoor light-ing. It also outlines the environmental considerations of outd

36、oor lighting especially related to sky glow and light trespass. In addition, this RP provides informa-tion on how to assign lighting zones, and how to use the Joint IDA-IES Model Lighting Ordinance (MLO) and Users Guide, as a basis for an outdoor lighting ordinance.4Finally, this RP discusses commun

37、ity based design, and specific recommendations for lighting outdoor areas. A number of other IES recommended practices (RPs) and the IES Lighting Handbook, 10th Edition5,provide design guidelines for specific outdoor light-ing applications. This document is not intended to supersede those RPs or the

38、 IES Lighting Handbook, 10th Edition. Rather, it will link the various docu-ments together, augmenting them in subject areas not otherwise covered. This document will also aid in establishing community themes and lighting zone classifications. Where conflicting uses and desires for the nighttime env

39、ironment arise, the parties involved should work together to resolve the issues by review-ing all of the relevant criteria to reach a consensus about which criteria will guide the final resolution.2.0 OUTDOOR LIGHTING DESIGN CONSIDERATIONSWhen approaching any lighting project, the first deci-sion th

40、at should be resolved is what type of lighting is necessary and appropriate. After the basic require-ments are satisfied then any supplemental or deco-rative lighting may be considered. The prime concern should be to satisfy requirements for outdoor lighting that will: Permit reasonable uses of outd

41、oor lighting for night-time safety, utility, security, productivity, enjoyment, and commerce Conserve energy and resources to the greatest extent possible Minimize adverse offsite impacts including glare and obtrusive light Help protect the natural environment from the adverse effects of night light

42、ing from electric sources Help preserve the dark night sky for astronomy and enjoymentFigure 2: Architectural feature illustrating textural lighting from top downwards. Municipal Building, City of Boulder, CO. (Image courtesy of N. Clanton)3IES RP-33-142.1 Where, When and How to LightThe decision wh

43、en not to light involves matters of safety and security, community expectations for the nighttime appearance, environmental impact on plants and wildlife, and impact on peoples circadian cycle while sleeping. Energy costs and continuing operation costs are also relevant issues. Lighting Zones (refer

44、 to Section 2.5) can guide decisions on the need for nighttime lighting. Decisions about where, when, and how much light to use will neces-sarily be site-specific, but the rule of thumb should be to provide the minimum necessary. Properly designed lighting does not over-light. Electric lighting is a

45、pplied on a continuum from nature preserves with no man-made lights to a lively all-night entertainment district. If a project is in an environmentally sensitive area, such as a wilderness preserve, the question may include a straight-forward requirement to have the light-ing make no adverse impact

46、on the surroundings. Users entering such areas have few expectations for modern conveniences and may be more willing to take responsibility for their own actions. Difficult access may also restrict the numbers of people in such areas and may limit the user group to those who share a similar respect

47、for nature and for other people and their property. Remote locations may also make installation of lighting equipment and the required support infrastructure difficult to install and expensive to maintain. Limited nighttime lighting can also be used to constrain areas of anticipated use. In large pa

48、rks, lighting only certain pedestrian paths and bikeways allows for some use and circulation but secondary paths and areas surrounding primary paths can be left dark. Lower light levels can minimize glare and still provide good uniformity.Using lighting controls provides the flexibility to reduce or

49、 extinguish the lighting during times when people are less likely to be present. Local regula-tions may specify curfews that require lighting to be reduced after close of business or other set times. Light pollution is of special concern to astronomical observatories, and the negative effects of outdoor lighting on astronomical observations are well docu-mented and cover wide areas. Most of the major observatories in the United States, for example Palomar and the Kitt Peak Observatory (KPNO), are affected to a degree that observations of faint objects are signif
