Horizon view
Horizon from Sharp B
47.0056° N, 45.3550° W · cell 17THB
- Highest horizon point
- Sharp B: 14.5° above the horizontal, 10.4 km away at azimuth 50°.
- Farthest visible point
- 10.4 km away at azimuth 0°, 12.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 4,099 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 2.9° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 95° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 13.0°. At 2026-10-22 15:16:14 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.
