Resumen situación de España• Crecimiento suelo artificial 27.9 % en 10 años.

• Crecimiento de la potencia instalada 39 % en 10 años.

• Crecimiento del la señal 34 % en 10 años.

• Según los últimos modelos de C.L. la difusión secundaria es muy importante. Implica que el efecto de las fuentes indirectas es mucho más importante.

• (M. AUBÉ 2007)

Conclusions and future work

Conclusions• With the present data Spanish illumiation

can not be explained by demographic causes.

• There is important evidence of excessive waste in Italy.

• The population density in built land as intensive data is the best global parameter in order to represent the saturation of a country.

• An appropriate ilumination can be shown in satellite images.

Future work• It is needed further data of all the

countries considered in the study. ¡¡¡¡¡HELP US!!!!!

• Extend this study to all European countries, EEUU and Japan.

• Search of an illumination model useful to countries in development.

• Discussion of hypothesis about the type of light polluting sources.
