Get real-time elevation from your iOS devices GPS receiver and built-in geoid model.

As a bonus, weve also included access to the USGS Elevation Web Service which provides US ground elevation data. Youll be amazed at how, when you have a good view of the sky, Elevation For Reals internally generated elevation converges on the USGS value after just a short time. Outside the U.S., or on iOS devices with non-U.S. region settings, or if the USGS elevation service is unavailable, Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) published elevation data is shown between 60°N and 56°S latitude.

Here are some more features:

- Real-time map which displays your location

- Estimated vertical and horizontal accuracy

- Spot elevation data displayed by tapping map

- English or metric units based on your region setting

- Start/Stop button

- One touch screenshots

- NO Third-Party Ads!

- Optional pressure altimeter (in-app purchase). Measure relative altitudes or calibrate to an elevation benchmark. Use indoors or out. Even works in Airplane Mode! Note: your iOS device must be equipped with a barometer to access pressure altimeter functionality. The iPhone 6 and later and the iPad Air 2 and later have barometers.

Elevation for Real will run on devices not equipped with a GPS receiver and GPS-equipped devices that are not receiving a GPS signal, but any resulting elevation readings will just be the approximate ground elevation at your location, even if you are several stories up in a tall building.


4) ***Any elevation measurements with personal safety or financial implications should be performed by professionals with professional GPS equipment.
