Provides a hosted API and merged global dataset for querying high-resolution elevation from bathymetry to 50cm lidar

www.gpxz.ioAPI DevelopmentSep 2021San Jose, United States1-10GPXZ LLC

The product is a hosted elevation data API and merged global dataset that combines bathymetry, satellite and up to 50cm lidar data to provide accurate elevation values without managing multi-terabyte datasets. It solves the problem of sourcing, merging and querying fragmented elevation sources and avoiding discontinuities from simple overlays. It sells to developers and data teams in businesses that need elevation for mapping, GIS and analytics applications. It is delivered as an infrastructure API with point, multi-point, raster GeoTIFF and map tile endpoints and a drop-in compatibility layer for the Google Elevation API.
