Hi! I was trying to use your script but when I run it get this message:
File "elevation.py", line 15
print 'HTTP GET Request failed.'
^
SyntaxError: Missing parentheses in call to 'print'
can it be fixed?

Are you using python3? if so it's
print('HTTP GET Request failed.')

import json
import urllib.request

def elevation(lat, lng):
apikey = "Put in your Key"
url = "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/elevation/json"
request = urllib.request.urlopen(url+"?locations="+str(lat)+","+str(lng)+"&key="+apikey)

try:
    results = json.load(request).get('results')
    if 0 < len(results):
        elevation = results[0].get('elevation')
        return elevation
    else:
        print('HTTP GET Request failed.')
except ValueError as e:
    print('JSON decode failed: '+str(request))

if name == "main":
evl = elevation(37.48976,-113.32631)
print(evl)
