Horizon view
Horizon from Louville A
43.2811° N, 45.3356° W · cell 17THT
- Highest horizon point
- Louville A: 13.9° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 137°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 181°, 9.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,047 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 3.9° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 96° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 11.9°. At 2026-10-22 17:09:26 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.
