Cumulus log files are in CSV format, which can be read by Excel.

In the initial setup of CumulusMX, what exact setting is Elevation ?

Is it the elevation at feet above sea level for the station, or the elevation of the station above ground, given that ground is Zero, and the station may be 30 feet in the air ?

Normally station height above sea level. I don't think it is used for anything but display though.

It's used for something but I can't look at the code right now. I think it's just for determining altitude pressure for Oregon Scientific stations. Otherwise just for display, as Mark says.
