The Life of an IES File: Predicting Lighting Through Photometry

IES Educational Webinar Series | The Life of an IES File: Predicting Lighting Through Photometry | Thursday, September 18 at 12 PM ET
September 18, 2025
12:00 pm

Lighting professionals rely on the measurable properties of light to predict performance, communicate value, and make informed design decisions. This webinar explores the fundamental science of photometry and traces the lifecycle of an IES file — from laboratory testing to real-world application. Participants will develop a foundational understanding of how photometric measurements are captured, structured into IES files, and used to simulate, compare, and specify lighting solutions. Designed for a broad lighting audience, this session will help you build or refresh your understanding of photometry to better support accurate predictions and achieve design goals.

This is a special 90-minute webinar (1.5 CEU).

Registration for this event ends on September 18, 2025 at 12pm ET.
