20.4934° N, 82.5740° W · cell 13QCE
- Highest horizon point
- Balboa B: 3.4° above the horizontal, 9.48 km away at azimuth 242°.
- Farthest visible point
- 36.0 km away at azimuth 101°, 0.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,110 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 31.8° under it at azimuth 78°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:11 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.
