Can't find Google Earth topography data for your site? Here's why
Wondering why the software is only providing flat topography data? Here's all you need to know
When no elevation data is received by Google Earth API a flat terrain will be used by default. This way, we are assuring a simulation can be ran as expected.
In case you would like to assess a topography analysis, you will have the possibility to upload your own elevation data. Here follows a list of a few links to public elevation data providers:
- Europe: https://data.europa.eu/data/datasets?locale=en
- Spain: https://www.ign.es/web/ign/portal
- Italy: https://tinitaly.pi.ingv.it/Download_Area1_1.html
- France: https://www.ign.fr/carto, https://www.geoportail.gouv.fr/
- UK: https://geoportal.statistics.gov.uk/
- US: https://earthexplorer.usgs.gov/
- Japan: https://www.gsi.go.jp/
