    Open alternative to the Google Elevation API!

  • You can self-host an API serving open data (I also develop https://github.com/ajnisbet/opentopodata/ which helps you do this) but elevation data comes in different formats and quality levels which are non-trivial to merge without artefacts, and the datasets are too large for a typical cloud workflow.
