A: Min. 5 meter resolution, so 5 meter or less (lower is better) for Cities: Skylines 2. If your files are in arc minutes, use this site to calculate what the resolution is in meters: https://www.opendem.info/arc2meters.html Q: How do I see the elevation of a given point, on a map? A: Install the plugin, called "Value Tool. You can see it working in my video, when I'm on the front-page of QGIS. It's the lower window, in the right side.
