Horizon view
Horizon from Oersted P
43.6104° N, 45.9094° E · cell 29TDT
- Highest horizon point
- Oersted P: 4.6° above the horizontal, 13.3 km away at azimuth 18°.
- Farthest visible point
- 14.2 km away at azimuth 3°, 3.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,979 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 44.8° high at azimuth 188°, 43.4° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 12:24:08 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.
