Validates the Unified Glare Probability, originally developed in green open plan office buildings in a subtropical climate. The study collected 341 post-occupancy surveys from six open plan offices in Malaysia under mostly intermidiate skies. Luminance mapping of occupant field of view was performed using a calibrated LMK Mobile Advanced with fisheye lens. Discomfort was accurately predicted by the old UGP model for 69% of new surveys. The Unified Glare Probability metric is updated to a logistic function incorporating the new data.
