47.0081° N, 92.8277° W · cell 11THC
- Highest horizon point
- McLaughlin: 7.8° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 216°.
- Farthest visible point
- 71.1 km away at azimuth 19°, 2.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,686 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 29.3° under it at azimuth 56°. At 2026-10-22 11:05:04 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.
