Horizon view
Horizon from Pico D
43.4614° N, 11.3028° W · cell 22TCN
- Highest horizon point
- Pico D: 17.9° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 42°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 161°, 14.2° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 3,571 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 28.2° high at azimuth 123°, 11.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 20:27:09 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.
