35.8777° S, 67.5640° W · cell 15HBG
- Highest horizon point
- Piazzi: 13.1° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 0°.
- Farthest visible point
- 2.84 km away at azimuth 0°, 13.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,812 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 11.9° under it at azimuth 101°. At 2026-10-22 16:42:16 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.
