Hi, I have a question in regards to how I would be able to find the altitude above sea level at a certain coordinate with a longitude and latitude?

If you know you are looking at the point you can do a raycast.
If not you can query a service like this https://open-elevation.com/
We are also going to add an API for this soon

Hi Matt,

 

Is there any update on when this API might be available? Been interested in the Unity SDK and it seems like a pretty crucial feature for general use.

Is there any other way to query elevation at a point from ArcGIS elevation databases from Unity?

 

Thanks
