Just a side-note: the turbidity factor is _only_ used by gensky to
estimate the zenith luminance. If the horizontal irradiance or zenith
radiance is given using -B or -b (respectively), turbidity is ignored.Cheers,

Hi Ji Zhang

fixing small typos and inconsistencies, but have not felt the need to
reflect the recent changes to gensky's turbidity.Both, CIE clear and overcast are extremes that are fairly unlikely to
occur in reality. As Greg said, you really need to feed in measurements, and
also have a good guess at the turbidity if you are concerned about accuracy.
If you can supply diffuse and direct irradiation, you might want to use
gendaylit instead.Axel
