Horizon view
Horizon from Kidinnu
35.7926° N, 122.9454° E · cell 38SHJ
- Highest horizon point
- Kidinnu: 10.2° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 111°.
- Farthest visible point
- 33.2 km away at azimuth 25°, 2.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,984 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 5.8° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 264° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 7.8°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:06 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.
