Landing page captured for the 2026-10-10 issue.
For
Landowners, mapmakers, GIS and CAD users
Worth noticing
The page distinguishes output-grid spacing from source resolution and vertical accuracy, and warns against treating contours as a survey.

Field notes

An area can be defined by a rectangle, polygon, typed coordinates, or an imported KML/GeoJSON boundary; imported files are limited to 5 MB and are read in the browser. Free downloads include a 3,998 × 4,096 PNG and GeoJSON with elevation, unit, and index attributes. Pro options include DXF, Shapefile, KMZ, layered SVG, and an 8,000-pixel PNG; the page says these files are built in memory and not stored.
