display contour line for polygon shape

Display contour line for polygon shape area. It'll be very useful to find and display the contour lines between a specific land.

Add a scale in ft & meters

Having a display to know what the scale of your zoom is would be very helpful

List height of contours on the actual contours

It's quite a simple idea, maybe we can find a way to list contour heights on the contours rather than have them in a separate legend

download contours as .DXF file

I need the ability to download contour data as the Drawing Exchange Format .DXF so that I can open the file in AutoCAD and other CAD programs.

export data as KML

It would be cool if you could export these lines and plot points and any other data as KML so that they could be viewed in Google Earth with DEMs. Would be very useful for geo spatial analysis.

Use black contour lines

It would be great if we'd have the ability to see only black contour lines and each, or at least some, lines would be labeled with their respective elevations instead of using color coded lines.

Add elevation value to kml file.

The new feature "download kml file" is wonderful. Please add elevation data for each contour.

increase sampling points

Great tool! I would like to create contours for a rugged map. To be more precise, I believe it would be important to change the number of sampling points (right now its 10x10 points I think - so some areas are in higher/lower contour regions...

add a ruler tool or some method to find slope

Add a ruler tool to click on two points to find the distance between them or perhaps colour shading with key to show slope.

Be able to export as an xyz point file.

In lieu of just getting elevations, it would be helpful to get an x, y, and z point file. It would help those of us in the construction industry import the data into our earthwork software. (I'm not smart enough for CAD and huge USGS files) Even...

Plot Lines for Mountains

It is a very nice tool, I liked it. My suggestion is that the plot I am getting is jumping from one mountain to another mountain with the same level. There should be a way to make the contours go around each mountain, which is the correct way...

Save Contour line colors for KML export and key

When downloading KML file, the contour lines are all same color and have to manually be changed back to colors shown in your tool. If you can create file that has the same colors and elevation/color key/legend it would be easier to do direct...

Great. But deliver filled contours as greyscale.

This would allow SVG import into CNC software for carving physical models from wood etc.

After getting data and clicking [redraw contour] says "No data"

No data available. Click [get data] first or copy data in the data field manually. After clicking [get data] and then clicking [redraw contour], the error says: No data available. Click [get data] first or copy data in the data field manually.

Allow re-orientation of the base photo to lot

Would be nice (if not already available, and I can't see it) to be able to re-orientate the base photo so the selection rectangle can be aligned somewhat with the Lot shape. Great tool none the less !

Build a useer friendly app and add scale

I do not know if there is an application for this, if not one should be developed. It should be user friendly and should have scale which can be set as desired. Its a nice and reliable innovation by the way.

export data as shapefile

Hi, If there is option to export created contours in shapefile, would be great. Also with higher level interval the generated contours are not smooth. I couldn't also find about the vertical accuracy and the reference data. Thank you!

"Level Interval" has no bounds checking

Select a region near sea level. Now "Level Interval = 44". Now I'm seeing a contour line -22m (for Melbourne CBD near sea level). ie. There is no bounds checking. If possible would expect you to check lowest and highest elevation for the...

'Island' option.

Only use contour lines that are a complete path, starting with the outermost one. (*Love* this project, by the way!)

Hinweis auf Ihrer Seite: es ist kein Geländemodell

Bitte einen Hinweis auf Ihrer Seite: es ist Vorsicht geboten, ist ein Oberflächenmodell und KEIN Geländemodell. Das heißt auf Hochdeutsch das die Bebauung, Bewuchs etc. mit drin ist. Also dann Einzelobacht.
