Very neat! An idea that often came up amongst coworkers while walking to a lunch spot during the hot summers was being able to get walking directions that preferred routes in shadow. We had our own routes we came up with that didn't add much time to the total trip but had a massive increase in shade versus almost none on the fastest route.

This reminds me a lot of that, though you would need good data on building heights and shapes as well as which side of the sidewalk you would walk on (if walking on both is even possible). Would love to see that get created some day.
