Horizon view
Horizon from Hermann J
2.6038° N, 57.5288° W · cell 16NDD
- Highest horizon point
- Hermann J: 9.3° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 33°.
- Farthest visible point
- 1.90 km away at azimuth 93°, 6.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,231 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 2.7° under it at azimuth 91°. At 2026-10-22 22:46:17 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.
