LED light simulation

Hi,

does anybody know if any of these http://ce.citizen.co.jp/lighting_led/en ... eries.html file formats for high-performance COB-LEDs is usable in order to simulate an emitter in Maxwell correctly? If not, where could one get such data and of what type should this data be?

Thanks!

Only if they can be converted to IES.

Thanks, do you know where one finds out about such conversions?

Did you look at the filesizes?

I guess "ray data" is something very different than light intensity distribution
As we know it from .ies or eulumdat filetypes.

Thanks, found IES files by digging around some more. Seems that most LED mfrs. provide these, which is useful.
