Horizon view
Horizon from Debye J
48.1821° N, 172.5697° W · cell 1UHU
- Highest horizon point
- Debye J: 12.1° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 347°.
- Farthest visible point
- 14.2 km away at azimuth 28°, 11.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 131 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 36.5° under it at azimuth 321°. At 2026-10-22 17:57:27 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.
