Horizon view
Horizon from Promontorium Fresnel
28.6288° N, 4.7473° E · cell 24RBE
- Highest horizon point
- Promontorium Fresnel: 13.1° above the horizontal, 1.66 km away at azimuth 325°.
- Farthest visible point
- 63.3 km away at azimuth 197°, 2.0° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,940 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 45.1° high at azimuth 126°, 40.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:45:45 UTC, when this page was served.
- Resolution
- Terrain resolution: about 474 m at this point and about 1.9 km at the farthest samples; nearby foreground relief is smoothed at the coarser tiers, and the model does not include boulders or other surface hazards.
