Gnomon Description

Allows you to view and study the shadow cast by a gnomon Gnomon is a free software that allows you to view and study the shadow cast by a gnomon (the part of a sundial that casts the shadow) over the course of a day for any day of the year and any latitude on Earth. Gnomon gives you the option to use mean Sun (which moves relative to the stars at a constant rate throughout the year) or true Sun (which varies its apparent speed relative to the background stars). The default is to use true Sun. Gnomon also shows the observer's horizon plane on the spherical Earth, as well as the ecliptic and the apparent path of Sun. The Earth View can be set to let Earth rotate or remain fixed.NOTE: Gnomon is licensed and distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 license.
