[GRASS-user] First public release of Elevation, SRTM 30m global DEM easy management

Repost from python-announce-list as I think it is of interest to grass users.

I am pleased to announce the first public beta release of Elevation, a tool for easy access to global terrain digital elevation models, SRTM 30m DEM and SRTM 90m DEM:

http://elevation.bopen.eu/en/stable/quickstart.html

Development effort is directed to fixing bugs and writing better documentation before the 1.0 release. Testing and contributions are highly welcomed and appreciated. Every little help counts, so do not hesitate!

Hi Alessandro,

Looks good. Following up on a suggestion on the QGIS mailing list for a plugin based on this, it might also be useful to create an GRASS addon using the Python API? An perhaps not that difficult either? Anybody :slight_smile: ?

Cheers,

Paulo

Paulo,

indeed! But contrary to the qgis front we are not able to work on a grass plugin ourselves. We are willing to support anyone interested though.

Cheers,
Alessandro
