Horizon view
Horizon from C. Mayer
63.2562° N, 17.3072° E · cell 25VFS
- Highest horizon point
- C. Mayer: 7.7° above the horizontal, 18.9 km away at azimuth 256°.
- Farthest visible point
- 21.8 km away at azimuth 283°, 5.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,201 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 23.5° high at azimuth 157°, 20.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 16:15:47 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.
