Horizon view
Horizon from Hedin A
5.3967° N, 78.0623° W · cell 13NHG
- Highest horizon point
- Hedin A: 4.4° above the horizontal, 33.2 km away at azimuth 206°.
- Farthest visible point
- 42.6 km away at azimuth 34°, 1.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,021 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 29.1° under it at azimuth 89°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:13 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.
