- Show HN: 3D map of shade around the world

GPX replay map that shows terrain shadows during activities
Nextzen has freely available DEM tile data to zoom level 15, so about 5 meters/pixel. You need a free API key [1]
Mapbox has paid DEM data to zoom level 20, but I think it's just zoom level 15 scaled up (but the data is cleaner and more recent) [2]
Nextzen also open-sourced their elevation tile generator, but I haven't tried to generate my own tiles [3]

For a start, I might suggest getting the hang of Osmium. There's a Python wrapper at https://github.com/osmcode/pyosmium which should be able to get you started.
