Horizon view
Horizon from Louville
44.1248° N, 46.0395° W · cell 17TGU
- Highest horizon point
- Louville: 9.2° above the horizontal, 1.90 km away at azimuth 60°.
- Farthest visible point
- 86.2 km away at azimuth 190°, -1.3° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,736 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 3.0° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 95° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 6.7°. At 2026-10-22 16:17:15 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.
