Horizon view
Horizon from Golgi
27.7849° N, 59.9553° W · cell 16RAP
- Highest horizon point
- Golgi: 17.3° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 291°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 48°, 13.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,062 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 6.9° under it at azimuth 88°. At 2026-10-22 18:42:26 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.
