Horizon view
Horizon from Steinheil Y
47.3534° S, 45.0588° E · cell 29GCH
- Highest horizon point
- Steinheil Y: 10.6° above the horizontal, 7.58 km away at azimuth 244°.
- Farthest visible point
- 10.4 km away at azimuth 4°, 7.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 603 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 43.7° high at azimuth 352°, 36.1° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 14:33:38 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.
