AgentsToolsHub Sun Position
x402
AgentsToolsHub Sun Position is a paid API for AI agents from agentstoolshub.com, paid per call via x402, $0.01/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-31).
Returns the sun's azimuth, elevation angle, cardinal direction, right ascension, and declination for any geographic coordinates at any timestamp using NOAA solar equations.

How this service works
Where the sun is in the sky right now — or at any timestamp — for any coordinates: azimuth (compass bearing), elevation angle, cardinal direction, right ascension and declination, from the NOAA solar equations. Deterministic astronomy for shadow math, solar-panel orientation and photo planning. Use this when an agent needs to azimuth, altitude and cardinal direction, now or any time.
Output
Returns the sun's current or historical position including azimuth (compass bearing in degrees), altitude/elevation angle (degrees above or below horizon), cardinal direction (e.g. SW, NNE), right ascension, and declination — all computed deterministically from NOAA solar equations for the given lat/lon and optional timestamp.
Example use cases
Solar panel orientation check
“What's the sun's azimuth and elevation angle at latitude 34.05, longitude -118.24 right now so I can figure out the best angle to tilt my solar panels?”
Golden-hour photo shoot planning
“I'm shooting photos in Paris at the Eiffel Tower on June 21st at 7:30 PM — what direction will the sun be coming from and how high will it be in the sky?”
Shadow length estimation for architecture
“I need to know the sun's elevation and compass bearing at latitude 51.5074, longitude -0.1278 tomorrow at 2pm to estimate how long the shadows will be from a building.”

Endpoint
GEThttps://agentstoolshub.com/api/v1/geo-time/sun-position?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Choose this endpoint when you need precise, deterministic solar position data (azimuth, elevation, cardinal direction, RA/Dec) for any coordinates and time — especially for shadow calculations, solar panel orientation, or photography planning. Prefer over general astronomy APIs when NOAA-equation accuracy and low cost per call matter. Use the sibling sunrise/sunset endpoint when you only need daily solar event times rather than instantaneous position.
Side effects
- Missing required lat or lon parameters returns a 400 error
- Invalid ISO timestamp format causes a parsing error
- Coordinates outside valid range (lat -90 to 90, lon -180 to 180) may return an error or undefined behavior
- Network timeout or service unavailability returns a 5xx error
