✕Querying the MapToolkit Elevation API delivers a simple interface with elevation data of any place on earth. Furthermore, ready-made elevation profiles can be delivered for paths, which may then be visualized either via the MTK.ElevationProfile or via your own logic. All responses are in JSON-format.
