The elevation service, or ArcGIS Elevation service, is a location service hosted by Esri that returns TopoBathy elevation values for a single location or multiple locations. This service provides elevation coverage in both topography (land elevations) and bathymetry (water depths) and takes location inputs as longitude and latitude coordinates. All elevation values will be returned in meters as measures of ellipsoidal (geodetic) height above ground level or orthometric (geoid) height above mean sea level.
The service is available to developers who have an ArcGIS Location Platform account.
The service is not available to developers who have an ArcGIS Online account or ArcGIS Enterprise account.
