Horizon view
Horizon from Dunthorne
30.1188° S, 31.7058° W · cell 19JFD
- Highest horizon point
- Dunthorne: 21.7° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 206°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 214°, 21.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,957 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 18.5° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 80° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 19.0°. At 2026-10-22 17:57:35 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.
