This project is a portal project of https://github.com/tkrajina/srtm.py. This project provide less functions than srtm.py, but it can use mmap to accelerate fetching data. And we assume you have srtm data already, not on network.

Usage:

from srtm import GeoElevation

filepath = '/filepath/'
elevation_data = GeoElevation(filepath, pre_load=True)

print('CGN Airport elevation (meters):',
    elevation_data.get_elevation(50.8682, 7.1377))
