Because of that, I’m currently unable to say if and when the corresponding terrain data will be integrated. Thanks for bringing this up!

Hello Mr. Hoffmann,

I’m following up regarding the availability of terrain category as structured data in the Geo-Zone Tool API.

After testing the Python client dlubal.api.geo-zone-tool (v0.3.1), I can confirm that this data is visible in the web overlay (MapMode.TERRAIN\_CATEGORY), but is missing from the response of get\_load\_zone\_characteristics and from the layers returned by get\_load\_zone\_standards for FR, DE, and UK.

Could you share:

1. The current status of this feature on the roadmap.
2. An estimated timeline for its availability, even if approximate.
3. Whether a beta or early access might be possible.

Thank you in advance.
