Horizon view
Horizon from Louville E
43.1792° N, 45.9529° W · cell 17TGT
- Highest horizon point
- Louville E: 11.3° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 122°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 0°, 9.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,943 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 4.1° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 96° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 11.0°. At 2026-10-22 18:54:47 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.
