Description

This Altimeter determines the height using a digital elevation model. ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer) provides digital elevation data with an accuracy of 10m.
Alternatively, you can also only use GPS for height determination. The GPS altitude is less accurate.

ASTER only delivers the topographical elevation. Example: When ballooning, ASTER does not provide the height of the balloon, but the elevation of the underlying ground.

What's New in Version 1.4

Critical bugfix! App will not crash anymore when querying ASTER ☂

Customer Reviews

Mind the Feet/Meters Switch (5 stars)
Guys, please update! ... also your reviews. ;-)
Please note the top left meters/feet switch. That should explain your problem "JY/Wildhorse".
Altimeter+ has no influence over the quality of the GPS signal. Please check in the Maps app first, before leaving infavorable reviews.

DOES NOT WORK (1 star)
I've tried it in locations all over Los Angeles. It says "GPS signal too weak" every single time. Hard to believe the GPS signal is weak everywhere in L.A. Save your money.

Be careful @$@&$ (1 star)
Great App - But it won't let you re-install It of you accidentally blow it off your iPhone !!!
