Horizon view
Horizon from Alter
18.7401° N, 107.7969° W · cell 10QAC
- Highest horizon point
- Alter: 7.9° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 305°.
- Farthest visible point
- 44.5 km away at azimuth 71°, 3.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 823 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 54.9° under it at azimuth 64°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:04 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 1.9 km, the global LOLA terrain tier of 16 pixels per degree; relief smaller than that, near or far, is smoothed, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
