Line Object Service
===================

Service for accessing the line object.
It is possible to use a Get and Set method for getting object specific data.
Line objects can be e.g. roughness or elevation data.
A small example can be found below.

.. literalinclude:: ../../../python/examples/fromDocs/objects/line_object.py

A line object can be added with the ObjectService.
But to make it usable it needs to be connected to a file containing the line data.
Most elevation data in windPRO's online data catalogue is provided as grid data.
An example how to downlaod elevation grid data and convert them to a line obejct is added below:
