Elevation Python Packages

pydelatin

Python bindings to `hmm` for fast terrain mesh generation

pymartini

A Cython port of Martini for fast RTIN terrain mesh generation

globato

Globato is the user-facing geospatial engine of the ContinUous-DEMs ecosystem. It is designed for the rapid development, blending, and processing of high-accuracy Topo-Bathy Digital Elevation Models (DEMs).

pydtmdl

Python library to download DTM data from various providers.

abovepy

Kentucky's KyFromAbove program provides statewide 2ft DEMs, 3-inch orthoimagery, 3-inch oblique imagery, and COPC LiDAR point clouds — all publicly available on S3 with a STAC API for discovery. abovepy gives you Pythonic access to all of it, plus server-side terrain analysis via TiTiler. No credentials required.
