Horizon from van Rhijn T
52.1308° N, 140.1137° E · cell 41UCJ
- Highest horizon point
- van Rhijn T: 11.7° above the horizontal, 17.1 km away at azimuth 53°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 1°, 7.7° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,785 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 9.2° under it at azimuth 280°. At 2026-10-22 19:30:05 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.
