5 minutes of your time: Survey on the use of daylight simulation tools

Please excuse the cross-postings...

Dear colleague,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =
"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

This is your opportunity to influence future developments of daylight
simulation tools.

You are invited to participate in an online survey on the current use of
daylight simulation tools during building design. The survey is carried out
as part of a research project of the International Energy Agency's Task 31,
Daylighting Buildings in the 21st Century.The survey is administered by the
National Research Council Canada and will be active until Tuesday, December
23rd 2003. The outcome of the survey will be used to:
· identify existing weaknesses of daylighting design software
packages
· better understand design practitioners' needs
· tailor the output of tools accordingly.

We would like you to fill out an online questionnaire about your daylighting
design experience. Please respond to all questions as openly and honestly as
possible. There are no right or wrong answers; it is only your opinion that
is important. All information that we obtain from you through this survey
will be kept confidential. Your participation in this research is voluntary.
Should you decide to participate in the survey, you still reserve the right
to end your participation at any time and for any reason, without prejudice.
