Hello,
is there a way to get koordinates with the heights from osm (for examlpe Germany-BW) in the form x,y,z. I have such a file but the resolution ist 200m.

Format:
893600.0 5781800.0 34.68
893800.0 5781800.0 34.86
894000.0 5781800.0 39.99
894200.0 5781800.0 43.18
894400.0 5781800.0 43.41
894600.0 5781800.0 43.07
894800.0 5781800.0 42.79
355600.0 5781600.0 40.77
355800.0 5781600.0 41.37
356000.0 5781600.0 41.56
356200.0 5781600.0 41.54
356400.0 5781600.0 42.73
356600.0 5781600.0 44.34
356800.0 5781600.0 45.13
357000.0 5781600.0 46.98

What do you mean under height? Do you mean the height above the sea level?

If you’re asking about the elevation (height above sea level), then that information generally isn’t available in the OSM data. Some objects may have their elevation tagged (using the ele=* tag), but this is usually limited to the tops of hills/mountains (natural=peak). You won’t be able to pick any location and get the elevation. You’ll need to use external data for this.

OSM doesn’t provicde a digital elevation model (DEM). But I think that the new SRTM 1" (30 m) resolution dataset may satisfy your needs.
