The event will be held on 5 November and Ignialight will be present with its PC-Amber luminaires with LED technology as part of the new challenges of light-based technology.
The conference aims to:

-Showcase the potential value of the night sky in Andalusia as a generator of green jobs and the quality of the sky in key sectors such as astronomy tourism.
- Present the study completed by the Ministry with more than 40,000 measurements of the brightness of the night sky, linked to satellite images, which resulted in the first predictive map that also shows the excellent quality of the night sky in Andalusia and makes it possible to determine the level of darkness anywhere in the region without the need for costly measurement campaigns.
Efficient and environmentally friendly lighting isfundamental for ensuring the quality of the sky.
