Horizon view
Horizon from Viviani N
3.4890° N, 116.5019° E · cell 38NAK
- Highest horizon point
- Viviani N: 18.0° above the horizontal, 6.63 km away at azimuth 0°.
- Farthest visible point
- 7.58 km away at azimuth 21°, 17.5° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 501 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is 11.4° above the smooth horizon at azimuth 268° but behind terrain: the skyline there rises to 17.0°. At 2026-10-22 17:09:11 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.
