Online tool to see sunrise and sunset throughout year on satellite view for my property?

Is there such a thing? I have a decent idea, but i am planning the build and would like to position the ground mount panels out of the way of where I may build my shop. Neither location are set in stone, but I would like to place the panels first and I'll build the shop in a few years or so.

edit: NVM, I found one. Suncalc.org

Well, we've just passed the spring equinox so these days it's rising around 90deg and setting around 270.
Any compass would do it. And I get my times from the daily newspaper.

But why lay out your whole site for an indoor view? Aren't the sunrise and sunset best viewed from outdoors?
If it was me, I'd locate the shop in the sweet spot - with a view and a nice deck, if possible.

And what about the moon .. a telescope on a tripod, perhaps. .... but I digress!
 
My house is already in the ideal location, so the shop location is mostly irrelevant other than not getting in the way of the sun
 
How's about timeanddate.com? It has everything related to time and calendars including sun calculator
