Horizon from Hedin L
5.1271° N, 71.4660° W · cell 14NFM
- Highest horizon point
- Hedin L: 24.2° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 129°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 321°, 17.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,585 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 18.7° under it at azimuth 90°. At 2026-10-22 18:42:39 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.
