daylight glare simulation in terms of DGPs

Hi everyone! I decide to use OpenStudio to simulate the impact of opposite buildings reflection on daylight glare conditions of open office. I know that the OpenStudio can only do daylight glare simulation with DGPs index but the simplified DGP(DGPs) ignores the size of glare source and other parameters related to glare source. I wonder is the DGPs applicable to my cases when the reflection of opposite buildings can't be ignored. Or is there any other index that you recommend for my case? I've considered the DGP but the simulation in Radiance is really time consuming cause I have to run a yearly simulation to reflect the temporal influence.
