Elevation can be measured in feet and inches, or metres and centimetres.
The amount of variation in elevation refers to the difference in height between the highest point and lowest point in a particular geographic area. It is typically measured in meters or feet and is an important consideration in understanding the topography and landscape of a region.
The height or the altitude of the land is its distance above sea level. This is referred to as the elevation of the land.
Elevation is a vertical lift and azimuth is a rotation around a vertical axis. An example of its use is in radar. The radar antenna rotates towards its target, its azimuth, and then lifts vertically to elevate the receiver then locks on to the target.
Landforms are typically measured by characteristics such as elevation, slope, shape, and size. These measurements help geographers and geologists classify and study different types of landforms, such as mountains, valleys, plains, and plateaus. Topographic maps and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are commonly used tools to measure and analyze landforms.
It depends upon the context. In mathematics, elevation usually refers to how much something is raised, and the angle of elevation would be the angle between the horizontal and the direct line to the object. In ballistics, elevation is the angle of elevation of mathematics. In architecture, it refers to a vertical aspect of something, e.g. the front elevation of a house would be the vertical front of the house as someone looks at it from the street. In cartography (map making), elevation would usually refer to how high something is above [mean] sea level.

Relative to Sea Level.
Elevation is typically measured from sea level. It refers to the distance above or below sea level at a particular point on Earth's surface.
Elevation is measured with respect to sea level.
Feet and Meters.
Denver, CO is called Mile High City because it measures one mile in elevation from sea level
An elevation map is usually measured using remote sensing techniques like LiDAR or radar to capture the topography of the Earth’s surface. These methods use sensors to calculate the distance between the Earth's surface and the sensor, creating a detailed map of the elevation at various points. GPS technology can also be used to determine elevation by measuring the position of a receiver on Earth's surface in relation to known elevations elsewhere.
The elevation of Mt. Everest is 8,846 metres measured from above sea level. This is the tallest mountain above SEA LEAVEL, however the tallest mountain in the world is Mauna Kea in Hawaii with an elevation of 10'200 metres, measured from below sea level. Hope this helped!

Its elevation has been measured at 15,919' or 4,852 m.
