Is there a way to calculate the luxes or the illuminance of an outdoor space by placing a surface and a context or cover (tensile structure, concrete shell, etc) in Honeybee?

Hi @AndresArq98 The outdoor daylighting simulation is same to the indoor daylighting simulation.If the model have complex geometry, you can use Mesh2Rad compotent to convert the scene.

It does not work for me, because the component that I know considers it as a box, (walls, ceilings and ground), I only want to consider floors and add a context that does not contain the ground, but surrounds it.
Is there a way to add a context to these components?
As if it were a square and buildings around it to obtain the simulation of natural outdoor lighting
@AndresArq98 You used energy model for daylighting simuation. It does not support complex geometry. You can use CreateHBsurfs to define the geometry and materila of outdoor scene
Here is a screenshot for you,.
