Elevation typically refers to the height of a point on the earth’s surface, and not in the air. Altitude is a measurement of an object’s height, often referring to your height above the ground (such as in an airplane or a satellite).
An elevation map is a topographical map that shows the height of the land above sea level. Elevation maps are also used by hikers and backpackers to determine the difficulty of a hike.
Explore the Elevation Atlas to find your elevation above sea level and understand geographical heights across different locations.
