For e.g. 828m (2716 feet) in Mauritius.

I need a type of list from the highest point to the lowest point of altitude of Mauritius. I know the highest and lowest point but between these 2 points it's a complete mystery.

The scientists at NASA use this for Mars Exploration but don't know how. And using just the naked eye is impossible. Putting the cursor over each point also is just a waster of time.

NASA have a lot of data at their disposal so there's no comparison. Why don't you try emailing Google Earth support to see if you can access that information from their software?

No answer yet. I think the only solution is to take the helicopter -_-

Last time I checked, a helicopter tour was around rs15000 for half an hour. I hope you have lots saved up :D

Is that even possible? I know you can get the altitude of a place once it has been identified. For example, if you have selected a place through the coordinates (longitude and latitude), then you can see the altitude.

Btw what's the idea behind you needing this information?
