Horizon view
Horizon from Mädler D
12.6783° S, 31.1690° E · cell 27LEQ
- Highest horizon point
- Mädler D: 6.2° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 112°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 277°, 2.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,879 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 77.4° high at azimuth 27°, 72.6° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:29 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.
