Horizon from Pontécoulant K
61.5698° S, 60.9486° E · cell 31EDF
- Highest horizon point
- Pontécoulant K: 9.1° above the horizontal, 5.69 km away at azimuth 218°.
- Farthest visible point
- 8.53 km away at azimuth 161°, 5.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,020 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 27.7° high at azimuth 336°, 21.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:45:18 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.
