Horizon view
Horizon from Hedin N
4.9663° N, 71.8842° W · cell 14NFM
- Highest horizon point
- Hedin N: 5.8° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 271°.
- Farthest visible point
- 38.9 km away at azimuth 139°, 0.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,248 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 19.1° under it at azimuth 90°. At 2026-10-22 18:42:40 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.
