What This Tool Does

Comprehensive elevation data tool that provides elevation information for any location on Earth including ocean floor depths. The tool offers discrete location elevation lookups for up to 512 points, elevation sampling along defined paths with configurable resolution, automatic elevation profile generation with visualization charts, and detailed statistics including minimum maximum average elevation gain total ascent and descent. Features elevation data in both meters and feet with resolution accuracy indicators, elevation categorization from below sea level to very high elevation, distance calculations for path-based requests, and optional chart generation saved to cloud storage. Perfect for hiking and trail planning applications, geographic surveying and terrain analysis, cycling route optimization, real estate site assessment, and adventure sports planning.

Product Instructions

Elevation Data - Point, Path, Charts & Statistics

Get elevation data for any location on Earth. Look up elevations for individual points, sample elevations along a path, and generate visual elevation profile charts with statistics.

Actions

get_elevation

Get elevation data for one or more discrete locations. Returns elevation in meters and feet, resolution, and an elevation category for each point. When multiple locations are provided, includes aggregate statistics (min, max, average, gain, ascent, descent).

Required fields:

  • action"get_elevation"
  • locations — Array of location objects (max 512), each with:
    • latitude (number, -90 to 90)
    • longitude (number, -180 to 180)

Example — Single point:

{
  "action": "get_elevation",
  "locations": [
    {"latitude": 27.9881, "longitude": 86.9250}
  ]
}

Example — Multiple points with statistics:

{
  "action": "get_elevation",
  "locations": [
    {"latitude": 37.7749, "longitude": -122.4194},
    {"latitude": 36.5785, "longitude": -118.2923},
    {"latitude": 36.2388, "longitude": -116.8318}
  ]
}

get_path_elevation

Sample elevation values at evenly-spaced points along a path defined by two or more waypoints. Returns elevation data for each sample point plus path statistics including total distance, ascent, and descent.

Required fields:

  • action"get_path_elevation"
  • path — Array of at least 2 location objects, each with:
    • latitude (number, -90 to 90)
    • longitude (number, -180 to 180)

Optional fields:

  • samples — Number of evenly-spaced sample points along the path (2–512, default 100)
  • generate_chart — Set to true to also generate an elevation profile chart image (default false)
  • chart_width — Chart width in inches (6–20, default 12). Only used when a chart is generated.
  • chart_height — Chart height in inches (4–12, default 6). Only used when a chart is generated.

Example — Path with 50 samples:

{
  "action": "get_path_elevation",
  "path": [
    {"latitude": 36.5785, "longitude": -118.2923},
    {"latitude": 36.2388, "longitude": -116.8318}
  ],
  "samples": 50
}

Example — Path with chart generation:

{
  "action": "get_path_elevation",
  "path": [
    {"latitude": 46.8523, "longitude": -121.7603},
    {"latitude": 46.7867, "longitude": -121.7354}
  ],
  "samples": 200,
  "generate_chart": true,
  "chart_width": 14,
  "chart_height": 8
}

get_elevation_profile

Same as get_path_elevation but always generates an elevation profile chart image. The chart shows elevation vs. distance with min/max markers and dual axes (meters and feet). A signed URL to the chart image is included in the response.

Required fields:

  • action"get_elevation_profile"
  • path — Array of at least 2 location objects, each with:
    • latitude (number, -90 to 90)
    • longitude (number, -180 to 180)

Optional fields:

  • samples — Number of sample points along the path (2–512, default 100)
  • chart_width — Chart width in inches (6–20, default 12)
  • chart_height — Chart height in inches (4–12, default 6)

Example — Elevation profile for a hiking trail:

{
  "action": "get_elevation_profile",
  "path": [
    {"latitude": 36.5785, "longitude": -118.2923},
    {"latitude": 36.4600, "longitude": -118.1700},
    {"latitude": 36.2388, "longitude": -116.8318}
  ],
  "samples": 100,
  "chart_width": 12,
  "chart_height": 6
}

Response Details

Elevation data per point

Each result includes:

  • elevation_meters / elevation_feet — Elevation in both units
  • resolution_meters — Data resolution (distance between data points used for interpolation)
  • category — One of: below_sea_level, low_elevation, moderate_elevation, high_elevation, very_high_elevation
  • description — Human-readable elevation description
  • location — Coordinates of the point
Statistics (returned for multi-point and path queries)
  • Min, max, and average elevation (meters and feet)
  • Elevation gain, total ascent, and total descent (meters and feet)
  • Total distance in km and miles (path queries only)
Chart output (path actions with chart enabled)
  • elevation_chart.signed_url — Direct link to the PNG chart image. Always present this URL to the user.
  • elevation_chart.file_id — Storage reference ID
  • elevation_chart.filename — File name
  • The chart expires after 7 days.

Common Workflows

  1. Check elevation of a city — Use get_elevation with a single location.
  2. Compare elevations of multiple places — Use get_elevation with several locations to get comparative statistics.
  3. Analyze a hiking route — Use get_elevation_profile with waypoints along the trail to see total ascent/descent and a visual chart.
  4. Assess road grade between two points — Use get_path_elevation with start/end points and a high sample count for detailed elevation changes.

Important Notes

  • Coordinates must be in decimal degrees (not DMS format). Convert addresses to coordinates before calling this tool.
  • The locations parameter is for get_elevation only; the path parameter is for get_path_elevation and get_elevation_profile.
  • Higher samples values give more detailed path data but use more API quota. Use 50–100 for overview, 200+ for detailed analysis.
  • Chart images are stored for 7 days and accessible via the signed URL in the response.
  • Maximum of 512 locations per get_elevation call or 512 samples per path call.

Live Schema And Examples

Use the compact schema above for ordinary calls. Before a new production integration, or whenever parameters, enum values, nested objects, outputs, or examples are unclear, fetch live details first.

  • Exact schema: call agentpmt-tool-search-and-execution with action: "get_schema", and tool_id: "elevation-data-point-path-charts-statistics".
  • Detailed examples: call agentpmt-tool-search-and-execution with action: "get_instructions" and tool_id: "elevation-data-point-path-charts-statistics", or call this product with action: "get_instructions" when the product tool is already selected.
  • Treat returned live schema and instructions as more specific than this generated summary.

MCP schema lookup through the main AgentPMT MCP server:

{

  • If validation fails or the response shape is unclear, call get_schema or get_instructions before retrying.
  • If get_elevation fails, preserve the request parameters and retry only after fixing schema, auth, or payment errors.

Security

  • Do not place account secrets, wallet private keys, mnemonics, signatures, or payment headers in prompts or logs.
  • Keep tool inputs scoped to the minimum content needed for the task.
  • Use the setup skills for credential handling; this product skill only defines product-specific behavior.
