Trying to take the baby steps

[shahid36]

Hi.

I am trying to calculate the Sunrise/Sunset for any location in uk.

It will help us (Muslims) to figure out when to pray.

There are few websites which gives answers i am looking for but they are limiting unless I pay to become a full member.

I just want to create an Excel sheet which will "fetch" location data from Google maps and calculate the information i need.

Can you please help?

Welcome!

You can find all that information for free using weather apps/websites like BBC Weather or the Met Office.

Hello Shahid, if you go to resources at the top of the page and select clear outside, it does say it shows sunrise and sunset times but I can't seem to find it on there. Have a look and hopefully you will find it.

Is this any good? You can set it to show various things, sunrise/set, twightlight etc for many English places and by month

Cartes du Ciel software https://www.ap-i.net/skychart//en/start

will give sunrise time everywhere in its ephemeris tool and lunar info that may be usefull.

There are a couple of Excel spread sheets on the NOAA website here that calculate the sunrise and sunset (amongst loads of other solar information) for anywhere in the world and for any date.  However, you do need to enter the required latitude, longitude and time zone manually.

Hi Shahid, there's a good android (and I presume ios) app called Sun position.

Hi Shahid,

The "Clear Outside" app (on Android) will not only give you the weather forecast in the UK but also sunrise and sunset times.
