Horizon from Zernike W
19.6571° N, 167.0809° E · cell 44QDJ
- Highest horizon point
- Zernike W: 11.3° above the horizontal, 14.2 km away at azimuth 259°.
- Farthest visible point
- 18.0 km away at azimuth 202°, 8.6° from the horizontal.
- Observer
- Eye 2 m above the ground, which is 1,701 m below the 1,737.4 km reference sphere.
- Sun at the rendered time
- The Sun is below the horizon: 37.7° under it at azimuth 284°. At 2026-10-22 18:42:26 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.
