    <title>topic Finding highest altitude within extents in ArcGIS Maps SDK for Unity Questions</title>
    <link>https://community.esri.com/t5/arcgis-maps-sdk-for-unity-questions/finding-highest-altitude-within-extents/m-p/1265918#M468</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;I'm interested in being able to determine the highest altitude on an elevated local map within the set extents.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;My current approach would be to create a box collider above the map and move it up / down to find the highest point at which it intersects with the map mesh. I can use a binary search style approach to find this in a reasonably low number of intersection checks. The problem with this approach is that it doesn't give an exact result, but rather an approximation depending on a precision threshold which controls when to stop doing intersection checks and accept the result.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Is there any API available through the SDK that might help me in calculating this?&lt;/P&gt;</description>
