Check this application it's for Sunrise and Sunset time calculations. Its default calculation method called time4a-time4j takes elevation into account and you can with simple click turn on/off elevation and see how much it affects Sunrise/Sunset times . You can make use of its code too
Va alaykum assalam, Thanks for bringing this up To address this we need to address it in the library this app uses: https://github.com/batoulapps/adhan-js
I'll make an issue there, and discuss it with them
Hi @Raviu56 please take a look at these: https://github.com/batoulapps/adhan-js/issues/126#issuecomment-1213634448 https://github.com/batoulapps/adhan-js/issues/16#issuecomment-640287803
from what it seems, it does not seem to be an easily solvable issue
so the affected times are : Fajr, sunrise, sunset, maghrib, isha
Yes, For Fajr and Isha effect is minimal as in the videos. But for Fajr limit of Sunrise and Maghrib there is a considerable effect.
I've opened a new issue there
thank you
Assalamo alaykom, Jazakum Allahu khayran for your application.
There is one problem that most Prayer times app does not take into account which is Altitude/elevation above sea level of the location point. This is really a big problem and can make difference of minutes of prayer time. The app assumes everything is at sea level which is not the case usually. Consider those 2 locations:
36.34444/30.12013/~35m 36.33877/30.05053/~1650m
Distance between them is around 6300m while elevation difference is over 1600m which diffidently should have much effect on prayer time.

I think you should seek help from https://www.astronomycenter.net/ on how to take elevations into account
