Horizon view
Horizon from Ellison
54.9332° N, 108.0460° W · cell 9UHS
- Highest horizon point
- Ellison: 15.4° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 95°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 0°, 11.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,633 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 30.0° under it at azimuth 39°. At 2026-10-22 15:38:26 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.
Vertical scale exaggerated 2x (horizontal 4 px per degree). Eye 2 m above the ground.Scroll sideways to turn; the middle faces 95°.
