Finding an Elevation on Google Maps.
-
This is pretty handy... just put in an address or longitude and latitude and then you can move the marker around and find elevations.

Although it displays in thousands of feet, don't use for any exact elevations. I tried it on my property and it indicated an area that is supposed to be lower, as higher.

Where are you getting your height info?
I just checked again and found it to be less than 1 foot off on a random topo I pulled out of the drawer.
Here's my info.
Google Map Location
Google Map Find Altitude.
Here's the professional survey and topo
I'd say that's easily within a foot.
Let us know how you got your figures.
