elevation

appearance as argument number 1

(documentation elevation EnglishLanguage "(elevation ?OBJECT ?HEIGHT) means that the physical Object ?OBJECT is located on the surface of PlanetEarth at the vertical distance ?HEIGHT above (or below, for a negative quantity) SeaLevel. ?OBJECT may be a superficialPart of Earth's surface, such as a GeographicArea. Elevation is measured from SeaLevel to the vertical top of the object.")	Geography.kif 1894-1899
