34.4732° N, 173.4866° E · cell 45SCM
- Highest horizon point
- Shayn B: 11.6° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 209°.
- Farthest visible point
- 19.9 km away at azimuth 40°, 7.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 747 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 36.7° under it at azimuth 298°. At 2026-10-22 16:17:10 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.
