Horizon view
Horizon from Mont Blanc
45.4130° N, 0.4403° E · cell 23TFA
- Highest horizon point
- Mont Blanc: 13.7° above the horizontal, 0.95 km away at azimuth 326°.
- Farthest visible point
- 144 km away at azimuth 190°, -3.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 485 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 32.3° high at azimuth 133°, 35.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:39:28 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.
