Horizon view
Horizon from King J
3.2640° N, 121.7698° E · cell 38NHJ
- Highest horizon point
- King J: 15.2° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 358°.
- Farthest visible point
- 6.63 km away at azimuth 16°, 14.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 836 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 3.6° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 268° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 12.4°. At 2026-10-22 22:02:24 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.
