Horizon view
Horizon from Valier P
4.7880° N, 173.4972° E · cell 45NBR
- Highest horizon point
- Valier P: 18.4° above the horizontal, 4.74 km away at azimuth 74°.
- Farthest visible point
- 5.69 km away at azimuth 51°, 18.1° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 785 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 46.3° under it at azimuth 273°. At 2026-10-22 18:42:32 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.
