Sunrise, Sunset and Solar Noon for a Location and Date (MET Norway)

metno/sun-times

Sun events for one date at any point on Earth from the Norwegian Meteorological Institute (MET Norway): sunrise and sunset with their azimuth, solar noon and solar midnight with the sun's elevation and whether it is visible. The date defaults to today. Times are UTC unless a UTC offset such as +01:00 is given. Near the poles a sunrise or sunset has null time and azimuth. Returned as the service's own GeoJSON feature.
