Discover PointsTurn real elevation data into a dotted map — each dot sized by the height of the ground beneath it. Free in your browser, for any place on Earth, exported as PNG or SVG.
Lines trace where the ground reaches a height. Points show how high it is, dot by dot.

Yes, on the same terms as Lines: switching to Points, previewing it and exporting the standard PNG are free. HD PNG, SVG and elevation gradients use credits, exactly like they do for contour lines. There is no separate Points plan.
No. Both modes read the same elevation model for the same zone. Points samples it on a grid and sizes each glyph by height; Lines traces lines of equal height. Switching modes doesn't fetch the terrain again.
The size and density ramp is relative to each zone: its lowest ground gets the smallest glyphs and its highest ground the biggest. That lets a gentle coastal plain use the full range, but it also means two zones don't share one scale.
Those exports always contain the contour lines of the zone. The point field is a rendering of the elevation — export it as PNG or SVG.
Yes. Density and glyph size scale with the export width, so a PNG High or an SVG has the same pattern as the on-screen preview, just sharper.
