Horizon view
Horizon from T. Mayer G
17.3505° N, 27.1745° W · cell 20QBG
- Highest horizon point
- T. Mayer G: 16.8° above the horizontal, 2.84 km away at azimuth 277°.
- Farthest visible point
- 3.79 km away at azimuth 0°, 14.4° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,014 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is above the local horizon: 21.6° high at azimuth 99°, 7.8° above the skyline there. At 2026-10-22 13:45:02 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.
