Light source, distance, and height

The term “light point” comes from the field of outdoor lighting, where it refers to a single light fixture, such as a streetlight. In this context, “light point” is simply another term for a lamp. When specifying the distance between individual light fixtures in street lighting, the term “light point spacing” is used. There is also a corresponding term for height: “light point height.” Although the term “light point” originates from outdoor lighting, it is sometimes used in indoor lighting as well. For example, in a starry-sky ceiling in a bedroom or children’s room, a “light point” represents a single star. However, the term is most commonly encountered in the context of street lighting.
