Mexicali
road illuminance.
Road illuminance, average lux and uniformity for a baseline residential street in Mexicali, Baja California. Reference NMX-J-307-ANCE and EN 13201.
Baseline illuminance map
Residential road baseline (100 W LED, 14000 lm, Type III optic, 9 m height, 30 m spacing, 9 m width).
Road illuminance in Mexicali
Mexicali sits at latitude 32.6245° and altitude 6 m, in a desert climate. With an FM of 0.74 recommended for media pollution conditions, the baseline residential scenario (100 W LED, 14000 lm, Type III optic, 9 m height, 30 m spacing, 9 m width) provides the typical illuminance values shown above.
For local validation, increase FM by 0.05 in dusty industrial zones or decrease height-to-spacing ratio when uniformity Uo drops below the NMX-J-307-ANCE threshold (0.25 for residential roads, 0.40 for main avenues).
