Horizon view
Horizon from Egede N
49.7642° N, 11.0957° E · cell 24UHL
- Highest horizon point
- Egede N: 5.4° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 273°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 150°, 3.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,916 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 34.1° high at azimuth 148°, 30.7° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 18:24:18 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.
