Horizon from Dechen A
45.9709° N, 65.7779° W · cell 15TDF
- Highest horizon point
- Dechen A: 15.0° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 322°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 78°, 10.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,849 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 8.8° under it at azimuth 83°. At 2026-10-22 22:06:19 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.
