Class ElevationApi

java.lang.Object

com.google.maps.ElevationApi

public class ElevationApi
extends java.lang.Object

The Google Elevation API provides a simple interface to query locations on the earth for elevation data. Additionally, you may request sampled elevation data along paths, allowing you to calculate elevation changes along routes.

See the Google Maps Elevation API documentation.
