Elevation Finder

Type coordinates or click the map to get elevation data. Works with decimal or DMS format.

How It Works

Enter coordinates in either format:

• Decimal: 40.7486, -73.9864
• DMS: 40° 44′ 55″ N, 73° 59′ 11″ W

Or click any spot on the map. Results show in both meters and feet

FAQ

How accurate is this? Typically within 10-30 meters, depending on the data source for that region.

Does it work over water? Ocean points usually return 0m (sea level). Some lakes and rivers have elevation data, others don’t.

Nothing showing up? Check that your coordinates are formatted correctly. For decimal format, use negative numbers for South/West (e.g., -73.9864 for West)
