I demonstrate how to run irradiance calculations with LiDAR shading enabled, taking into account nearby trees and buildings. Additionally, I explain how to manually add trees if there are changes since the last LiDAR data collection and emphasize the importance of manually modeling roof obstructions like chimneys. I also show how to disable LiDAR shading if needed and highlight that it is set as a global default in our settings. Please ensure you understand these features as they are crucial for accurate performance simulations.
