Elevation map in Android and OpenGL

[folli]

I'm trying to integrate elevation data from SRTM (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission) to display it using OpenGL.

Does anyone have any experience, hints or pointers on the best way on how to do this? Any way to use it directly as elevation map in openGL?

I'm grateful for any leads...

The only hint I found so far is this stackoverflow post: heightmap - OpenGL: optimal way to draw environment from height array? - Stack Overflow
