Accuracy Statement

All data presented on this site, sunrisesunset.com, is intended for recreational usage only. Other use of the data may work satisfactorily, but is not guaranteed. This site uses algorithms that are generally accurate to within a minute of the actual time of the event. The accuracy of sunrise, sunset and twilight times degrades as the latitude of the location is further north of 60 degrees north or further south of 60 degrees south. The accuracy degrades even more above 70 degrees. The current local time calculations are dependent on the accuracy of the clock of the server where the page is generated. The server's clock is synchronized with an atomic clock periodically, but between this synchronization the clock may drift ahead or behind by a number of seconds. Other factors may affect the accuracy of the clock causing the local time to be displayed incorrectly. All local times are adjusted to daylight saving time using the algorithms here. The days which a country begins and ends observing daylight saving time are determined by the government of that country. The algorithms this site uses are believed to be correct, but they may be inaccurate because of incorrect assumptions or governmental change of the dates. Users of this site agree that entering incorrect values to any form will produce unusable results. The years supported by this site are from 1901 A.D. to 2099 A.D.

Address bugs, comments and questions to this page. All information presented here is believed correct, but is not guaranteed. Read the FAQs, Definitions, Accuracy and Privacy statements. Copyright © 2001 Steve Edwards
