I need to estimate hourly solar irradiance on building envelopes for each building in the urban neighborhood. Any geospatial technique/tool which can be adopted offers this? A suitable reference is highly appreciated

Can climate studio account for hourly irradiance calculation? I am aware that they can estimate monthly and hourly.
