Horizon view
Horizon from Spot
8.9834° S, 15.5023° E · cell 25LEK
- Highest horizon point
- Stone Mountain: 5.5° above the horizontal, 5.21 km away at azimuth 163°.
- Farthest visible point
- 68.7 km away at azimuth 241°, 0.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 63.4° high at azimuth 75°, 62.0° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 10:51:14 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.
