I have completely changed the map point altitude service that was not working very well. From the user point of view nothing has changed and it works the same.
Like before you can access the service any time from the context menu. Just right click the mouse anywhere on the map and select Get Altitude to load the service.

I'm using the geonames web service, so be aware that sometimes their server might be unavailable or the response can take a while.
In the next few week I want to add a Weather service that gives you the current weather conditions from the nearest weather station when we provide the latitude and longitude to query the service. I'll talk more about it when I put it online; now I'm doing the coding and testing.
Let me know if you experience any problem with the Altitude service.

Update: The geonames Weather service has been added.
Just right click anywhere on the map and select Get Weather from the context menu.

Below is the resulting screen:
