Hikr Elevation Service
======================

Parses GeoJSON files (sent as pasted text) by adding elevation to all coordinates: paths, points and polygons. _Requires SRTM data_.

**Warning**
If you7re trying to run this service and coming up with errors, note the `elevation` folder. For the elevation service to function properly, it needs to be filled with .hgt files in the SRTM format, named according to the pattern `N34E135.hgt`. The script assumes this file to contain elevation data for latitude 34 degrees north and longitude 135 degrees east.

Thanks

Big thanks to Henri and Frank.

This service wouldn't be possible without NASA's SRTM data.
