class ElevationBatchResult:

GeoJSON FeatureCollection of elevation Point Features with 3D coordinates. Order matches the input coordinates array.

List<ElevationLookupResult> features

Elevation results in the same order as input coordinates

GeoJsonGeometry geometry

GeoJSON Geometry object per RFC 7946. Coordinates use [longitude, latitude] order. 3D coordinates [lng, lat, elevation] are used for elevation endpoints.

Coordinates coordinates

Coordinates array. Nesting depth varies by geometry type: Point = [lng, lat], LineString = [[lng, lat], ...], Polygon = [[[lng, lat], ...], ...], etc.

One of the following:
List<double>
List<List<double>>
List<List<List<double>>>

Geometry type

One of the following:
POINT("Point")
LINE_STRING("LineString")
POLYGON("Polygon")
MULTI_POINT("MultiPoint")
MULTI_LINE_STRING("MultiLineString")
MULTI_POLYGON("MultiPolygon")
Properties properties
double elevationM
