Forst lies at 50.8107° north, 7.6843° east in Germany.
The nearest city in this archive is Bitzen, roughly 3 km away; Germany covers 10751 places in total.
Soil was measured at the centre of Forst itself. The settlement falls outside the urban centre database, so no population time series is available. Measured elevation is 256 m and annual irradiation 1071 kWh/m². Earthquake exposure reads medium. 10 hazard categories have been assessed for this settlement.
Set against the 907 places in Germany with all these measurements, this one sits: above the median elevation · steeper than the median · in the least sunny fifth · in the wettest fifth · in the middle texture band.
