<p>Get the elevation of every point on Earth.</p>
</header>
<section>
<h2>About This Service</h2>
<p>This API provides you with access to elevation data across Earth's globe, absolutely free of charge.</p>
</section>
<section>
<h2>API Usage</h2>
<p>To use the API, make a GET request to this endpoint with the required parameters. Here is an example request:
</p>
<code>https://www.elevation-api.eu/v1/elevation/:lat/:lon[?json]</code>
<h3>Parameters:</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>lat</strong> - Latitude of the location, WGS-84</li>
<li><strong>lon</strong> - Longitude of the location, WGS-84</li>
<li><strong>?json</strong> - Append this to have the result retuned as JSON</li>
</ul>
<h3>Response:</h3>
<p>The API will return the elevation in meters. For example:</p>
<code>42</code>
<p>If the point is not into the DEM dataset, the response code will be 501 (or <code>Null</code> in JSON mode)
</p>

<h2>JSON API endpoint (multi coordinates)</h2>
You can also request many coordinates at once by using the following endpoint:
<code>https://www.elevation-api.eu/v1/elevation?pts=[[lat1,lon1],[lat2,lon2],[lat3,lon3]]</code>
<h4>Example</h4>
<code><a href="https://www.elevation-api.eu/v1/elevation?pts=[[46.24566,6.17081],[46.85499,6.78134]]">

</a></code>
