Abstract. This paper is devoted to a strange looking question: is it possible to deduce the shape of a smooth convex set by measuring at each point the distance of the horizon standing at a fixed height h? The question is surprisingly difficult and we only have partial results.
Keywords: convex sets, curvature, distance.
