Discover Points

Free dotted
map generator

Turn 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 or dots.
One switch.

Lines trace where the ground reaches a height. Points show how high it is, dot by dot.

Frequently asked questions

Everything about the Points mode, its settings and exports. See the full FAQ, or the render modes docs.

Is Points free?

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.

Does Points use different data from the contours?

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.

Why do two neighbouring zones look different in Points?

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.

Can I export Points as GeoJSON or DXF?

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.

Will the export look like the preview?

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.
