I wanted to give a heads up on this simple tool for grabbing heightmaps
https://tangrams.github.io/heightmapper/
It has a drawback in having no way to zoom out and still download heightmap at fullest resolution (unless you zoom in and download bit by bit) as you download what you see, but is otherwise simple to use.

Re: Tangram Heightmapper
There is a website: https://terrain.party/ where you can download height data of specified square area.
Sometimes it doesn't work, but for most of places you can download heightmaps.

I am aware of terrain.party but it doesn't work most of the time and recently seems to have completely gone under. At least I can't download anything with it.izmash wrote:There is a website: https://terrain.party/ where you can download height data of specified square area.

Re: Tangram Heightmapper
Since Tangram seems to have died/broken down, I found another one.
https://heightmap.skydark.pl/
This one even has option to download both heightmap and sattelite image of same area. Limited to Cities Skylines again though (1081px res).
