Horizon view
Horizon from Doppler W
10.9991° S, 162.1370° W · cell 3LCS
- Highest horizon point
- Doppler W: 21.4° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 248°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 29°, 19.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,431 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 66.4° under it at azimuth 240°. At 2026-10-22 16:56:48 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.
