elevation elevation OBS: This process has been deprecated. Use the REST API https://ws.geonorge.no/hoydedata/v1/ instead. The elevation process returns the elevation and place name of a given point in a given coordinate system. The elevation is calculated by interpolation in a 1m network of isometric lines in populated areas (with FKB coverage), and in a 20m network in other areas. It also returns the depth if the given point is in the ocean and close to the coast. The depth is calculated by interpolation in a 10m network of isometric lines (2 to 5 meters in shallow water close to the coast). This data is not to be used for navigational purposes. lat latitude Latitude of the point float lon longitude Longitude of the point float epsg EPSG code EPSG code of the projection system integer 4326
