Ah yes: Now I see. For some reason Tobias’ response didn’t make it back to me (??).
In any case, it appears that elevation data can indeed be extracted from on-line maps. Both google and Microsoft provide relevant APIs: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj158959.aspx <https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj158959.aspx> https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/elevation/intro <https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/elevation/intro> And, as far as I can tell, OpenStreetMaps uses external SRTM data. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/SRTM <http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/SRTM> This is all gobbley-gook to me but, perhaps to you Illustrious Programmers out there, the above may provide some clues as to how Dt might someday also be able to provide elevation data via the Maps function. > On 04 Jan 2016, at 10:28, Sebastian <se...@sebix.at> wrote: > > Hi, > > your Email was not lost, see: > http://sourceforge.net/p/darktable/mailman/message/34735648/ > The answer by Tobias: > http://sourceforge.net/p/darktable/mailman/message/34735979/ > > Sebastian > > On 01/04/2016 03:05 PM, J Albrecht wrote: >> I think that this original message was lost within a thread related to a >> ‘different’ topic (tagging issue).
