Horizon view
Horizon from Sinas E
9.6482° N, 30.9968° E · cell 27PDB
- Highest horizon point
- Sinas E: 18.1° above the horizontal, 3.79 km away at azimuth 2°.
- Farthest visible point
- 4.74 km away at azimuth 81°, 15.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,012 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 76.5° high at azimuth 144°, 60.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 15:16:54 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.
