Horizon from Colombo G
14.0149° S, 43.4443° E · cell 28LKC
- Highest horizon point
- Colombo G: 11.2° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 73°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 111°, 7.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,645 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 76.8° high at azimuth 344°, 68.3° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:31:06 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.
