Description: Several web services are available that provide access to
        elevation data. This package provides access to many of those
        services and returns elevation data either as an 'sf' simple
        features object from point elevation services or as a 'raster'
        object from raster elevation services. In future versions,
        'elevatr' will drop support for 'raster' and will instead
        return 'terra' objects. Currently, the package supports access
        to the Amazon Web Services Terrain Tiles
        <https://registry.opendata.aws/terrain-tiles/>, the Open
        Topography Global Datasets API
        <https://opentopography.org/developers/>, and the USGS
        Elevation Point Query Service
        <https://apps.nationalmap.gov/epqs/>.
