When you need it
- Check the height of a specific point without extensive preparation.
- Quickly understand the height difference between two objects or sites.
- View the terrain profile before leaving, installing, routeing or checking a radio link.

For those who came from a search for a specific number: put a point, get the height above sea level, add a second point and look at the elevation profile.
Altitude
Profile by line
DEM 30 m / 250 m
Difference between points
2 points
enough for a profile
DEM 30 m
where there is coverage
1 point
enough to check the height
What to do on the site
- Open the map and place a point with the mouse or enter coordinates manually.
- Check the DEM source and compare the result across multiple points.
- Save the result to your account if you need repeated access to the calculation.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Is it possible to find out the altitude above sea level from one point?
Yes. On the main A-102 map, you can place a single point or enter coordinates manually and get the altitude for that point.
How is a elevation map different from a elevation profile?
A elevation map shows the elevation of a point on a map, while an elevation profile shows the change in elevation along a line between two points.
What data is used for elevations?
The service uses DEM 30 m where there is coverage and access, and if there is no coverage, it automatically uses a spare layer of DEM 250 m.
