Descrizione (max 500 caratteri)

The goal is to write an online interactive webpage or tool to produce a 3D visualization of the following height reference systems: ellipsoid (used by GPS), geoid (used for heights above the sea level) and topography (used when referring to the terrain). The geoid models are selected from the ISG repository and the resulting visualization has to be integrated into the ISG website (www.isgeoid.polimi.it). The topography is taken from the global SRTM model, downloading and merging the tiles for the required area. The tool has to be developed in Python language through the Django framework.
