## Look up elevation at one or more points

`elevation.lookup_post(ElevationLookupPostParams**kwargs)  -> ElevationLookupResult`

**post** `/api/v1/elevation`

Look up elevation at one or more points

### Parameters

- `format: Optional[str]`

  Response format: json (default), geojson, csv, ndjson

- `lat: Optional[float]`

  Latitude (single point)

- `lng: Optional[float]`

  Longitude (single point)

- `locations: Optional[str]`

  Pipe-separated lng,lat pairs (batch)

- `output_fields: Optional[str]`

  Comma-separated property fields to include

- `output_include: Optional[str]`

  Extra computed fields: bbox, center

- `output_precision: Optional[int]`

  Coordinate decimal precision (1-15, default 7)

### Returns

- `class ElevationLookupResult: …`

  GeoJSON Point Feature with a 3D coordinate [lng, lat, elevation] per RFC 7946 §3.1.1. The elevation is also available in `properties.elevation_m` for convenience.

  - `geometry: GeoJsonGeometry`

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

    - `coordinates: Union[List[float], List[List[float]], List[List[List[float]]], List[List[List[List[float]]]]]`

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

      - `List[float]`

        [longitude, latitude] or [longitude, latitude, elevation]

      - `List[List[float]]`

        Array of [lng, lat] positions

      - `List[List[List[float]]]`

        Array of linear rings / line strings

      - `List[List[List[List[float]]]]`

        Array of polygons

    - `type: Literal["Point", "LineString", "Polygon", 3 more]`

      Geometry type

      - `"Point"`

      - `"LineString"`

      - `"Polygon"`

      - `"MultiPoint"`

      - `"MultiLineString"`

      - `"MultiPolygon"`

  - `properties: Properties`

    - `elevation_m: float`

      Elevation in meters above mean sea level (WGS84 EGM96 geoid)

  - `type: Literal["Feature"]`

    - `"Feature"`

### Example

```python
import os
from plaza import Plaza

client = Plaza(
    api_key=os.environ.get("PLAZA_API_KEY"),  # This is the default and can be omitted
)
elevation_lookup_result = client.elevation.lookup_post()
print(elevation_lookup_result.geometry)
```

  "geometry": {
    "coordinates": [
      2.3522,
      48.8566
    ],
    "type": "Point"
  },
  "properties": {
