Horizon view
Horizon from Volterra
56.5541° N, 131.6432° E · cell 39VHU
- Highest horizon point
- Volterra: 7.0° above the horizontal, 24.6 km away at azimuth 336°.
- Farthest visible point
- 44.5 km away at azimuth 155°, 3.9° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 2,507 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 1.5° under it at azimuth 270°. At 2026-10-22 11:06:13 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.
