Feature/Enhancement Proposal

I’m trying to use the ORS calls to build some gpx route for my journeys, many of them are collocated through some mountain zones. I noted that in many cases the point’s altitude is not very precise, for example points very close have a difference of 10m (or more) in altitude, but in reality this is not true. Then the final result is that the global positive difference in altitude in my journeys turns out to be greater (some time very greater) than reality…
I asked in ORS forum and @amandus he answered me that at the moment about this goal you are using the 'SRTM 90m Digital Elevation Database' model. I would like to suggest you take a look at the following link, where the altitude precision can be better.
