Horizon from Woltjer
44.8717° N, 159.8296° W · cell 3TFE
- Highest horizon point
- Woltjer: 8.3° above the horizontal, 21.8 km away at azimuth 97°.
- Farthest visible point
- 40.8 km away at azimuth 253°, 3.8° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 200 m above the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 43.3° under it at azimuth 333°. At 2026-10-22 14:29:14 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.
