Horizon view
Horizon from Nijland A
36.2291° N, 134.6852° E · cell 40SDD
- Highest horizon point
- Nijland A: 14.3° above the horizontal, 12.3 km away at azimuth 111°.
- Farthest visible point
- 13.3 km away at azimuth 4°, 11.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,338 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 4.8° under it at azimuth 272°. At 2026-10-22 13:45:19 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.
