I have created a tool that shows all the mountain passes in a certain (selectable) region.
The tool can be found here:
As an example:
on this screenshot you see all the mountainpasses in the Alps that are 3000 (or more) meters in height.
Once you click on a blue dot you see the details:
The preselected mountain ranges included are:
on the left bottom side of the screen you can select a different background for the map.
You can always add any region you are interested in to this tool, but you have to store that data locally on your computer. You need some overpass code and create a geojson file to have the data you are interested in on your computer.
An example is here:
[out:json][timeout:180];
(
node
[“mountain_pass”=“yes”]
[“ele”]
[“name”~“.”]
({{bbox}});
node
[“natural”=“saddle”]
[“ele”]
[“name”~“.”]
({{bbox}});
);
out body;
- Move the map to the location you are interested in and click run.
- Then click export to create a file named: export.geojson.
- Rename that file to a better name, but keep the extension. (like rockymountain.geojson)
- Store that file somewhere on your computer.
- Now you can select that file from the menu on the screen (LOAD YOUR OWN GEOJSON DATA)
