설명

My Altitude uses GPS signals to determine your current location, showing your latitude, longitude and altitude (height from sea level) barometric pressure and water boiling point.

It's a free app and does not have any limitations. In-App purchase can be used to remove the bottom advertisement and to support us.

This application does not need an internet connection and works best in outdoors.

By default, it uses device sensor to determine the elevation from see level, but you also have the option to use NOAA data files to get the altitude of your location. On newer devices, using device sensor is more accurate.

It also allows you to get a picture of where you are and save it in photo album. Picture will be sealed with coordinates of current location along with altitude and local date/time.

Barometric Pressure is calculated based on elevation. On newer devices such as iPhone 6/6+ value is being delivered directly from device built-in barometric sensor, this behavior is configurable and you can switch back to calculation mode.

App Features:
- Elevation from see level in meter (metric) or feet (imperial)
- Change between metric and imperial systems by tapping on reported elevation
- Current location coordinates including latitude and longitude
- Barometric pressure in various units extracted from device sensor or calculated from altitude
- Water boiling point at your current location
- Current weather information including temperature, condition, humidity, wind speed and wind bearing
- World Altitude, get approximate altitude (elevation from see level) of any location in the world
- Save altitude data for reference
- Take a picture and watermark it with elevation information and share

Enjoy.

A “Richie 🐝Bee” Review

This is very useful application. It’s great to see a close approximation of the exact altitude while traveling or hiking. If you have health related issues or are just interested from an information perspective, it is all good. The information screen is well laid out and easy to read as well. Also, the developers have put a lot of thought in this useful application that I’ve used for over 2 years now. Thanks for reading my review and thanks to the developers for keeping it up to date.

Barometric Pressure Not Adjusted For Height Above Sea Level

For anyone that is trying to use this application for accurate weather forecasting via use of barometer, the application is not calibrating based on height above sea level. This is critical for anyone taking part in outdoor activity where you want to check the current barometric pressure against a weather GRIB forecast predicted barometric pressure.

By comparing the current pressure against forecast pressure you can validate if the weather is coming in faster, slower, or as expected ... super important if you're taking part in an activity where you’re at risk due to heavy weather

The mean height above sea level feature does work well, and I validated height accuracy with other applications and station data, so I’ll keep the application for this data set to calibrate my barometer in another app. But the barometric pressure in this app is off by over 10mb for my location which makes the barometer in this application useless for practical purposes. I can confirm the reading given is sea level barometric pressure.

Highly recommend the Starparh Marine Barometer for accurate barometric pressure readings to those whose wellbeing is correlated to what the weather is doing. Just plug in the height above sea level value and the application will calibrate barometric pressure for you.

Know Your Space

This app helps you be aware of your surroundings more so than most. Your altitude is fun to know but your weather is the most important. This app answers so many of your questions such as should you continue on late in the day? Is it safe to be out on the road by yourself? How much daylight do you have left? What distance can you travel in a day? I am sure you will think of many more.
