Hi Sameek - Nice plugin and its proving quite handy for my archaeological PhD project. However is it possible to implement a feature to switch the year into BC to allow for dates in antiquity? I’ve attempted a negative year number but this doesn’t carry through to execution. I’m currently trying to understand the maths behind the plugin to see if this is possible to insert.
Also as an aside could you list the equation(s) used in your sun position algorithm? It would really help in my write up (full credit will be given to yourself of course).
Hey , since it t akes Julian Day , I guess it should work for BC upto a certain limit , but the following website contains a ppt which covers the necessary formula that will give you a better idea -
