[Gdal-dev] Find elevation data at specific point

[Gerald Brandt]

Hi,

I would like to know how to get the elevation from a specific coordinate
(in latitude/longitude or UTM).  I can convert between lat/long and UTM
as needed for the specific map data loaded, but I don't know how to get
the elevation of that coordinate.

I'm assuming that I need to get the xpixel and yline values, and
reference off of that somehow.  But, being new to GDAL, I'm not quite
sure.

Thanks for your help.

Gerald
