                     GPS data file library - version 0.2.0

  What is it?
  -----------

  This library downloads and reads SRTM (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission) files to interpolate the height at requested points. The Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) obtained elevation data on a near-global scale to generate the most complete high-resolution digital topographic database of Earth. SRTM consisted of a specially modified radar system that flew onboard the Space Shuttle Endeavour during an 11-day mission in February of 2000. This library requires an active internet connection to download the SRTM data files, unless they are already pre-installed in the cache directory. This library uses libsoup to download the data files from internet and the interface is presented as a gobject. Furthermore it uses libzzip (zzipmmapped) to unpack the data files.
