IES files are created by measuring how light is emitted from a given light source. These measurements are then used to create a virtual light source model. Lighting designers often use IES files to determine how a particular light fixture will perform in a given space. Manufacturers can also use them to provide accurate data about their products' light output. IES files can be viewed and opened using text editors and specific apps. They can be exported to other formats using some specialized software.
