Werid Elevation from .terrain files


i have dsm.tif from which i do gdalwarp to epsg 4326 then i use ctb to convert them to quantized mesh format i have tiles from tileserver for which i use gdal2tiles to convert it into tiles there is --project epsg:3857 so what is the unwanted elevation in case of terrain??

Hi @Haadi_M1 ,

The area around the image is rather flat so it’s hard to tell, the elevated portion is tiled into an existing terrain dataset? Or is the elevated part the only file that was converted to quantized mesh?

If the elevated part is added into terrain, one possibility is that since epsg:3857 uses a spherical projection, it might cause elevation changes at certain distances.
