Horizon view
Horizon from Schröter W
4.8289° N, 7.7366° W · cell 22NFF
- Highest horizon point
- Schröter W: 5.9° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 223°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 154°, 5.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,056 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 97°, 40.2° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 19:24:33 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.
