altimeter

Here it was still cold, but without the dampness of the clouds, and in the eye of the brilliant sun her spirits rose with the mounting needle of her altimeter. Gazing at the clouds, now far beneath, the girl experienced the sensation of hanging stationary in mid-heaven; but the whirring of her propellor, the wind beating upon her, the high figures that rose and fell beneath the glass of her speedometer, these told her that her speed was terrific.

2017), but we have a much better understanding of the altimeter era, largely because of the GRACE mission and the Argo network of profiling floats to measure heat content.

Given the inevitable lag for processing time, reaction time, radar sweeps, etc., I'd probably set my altimeter to indicate about 3230feet when the controller reported seeing 3200 feet.

For example, the combined adjustment of CE-1 laser altimeter data and CCD image data can improve the spatial resolution of a topography model effectively [8, 9].

Under such a constellation, the performance of autonomous orbit determination using optical imagery, altimeter data, and inter-satellite range data is evaluated.

Altimeter and its partner in this effort, PAR Capital Management, Inc.

The attempted board takeover by PAR and Altimeter is ill-timed and ill-conceived, according to the pilots who, along with Wall Street, question the motive behind their actions.

That's what we do when rotating the Kollsman window knob and setting the sea level barometric pressure--we're correcting for observed pressure at a known altitude, and reading indicated altitude on the altimeter. This will be different from true altitude, unless it's a standard day and there's no instrument error.

Pilots use the local altimeter setting (based upon atmospheric pressure variation) for calibration prior to flight.

Altimeter will operate under the name Altimeter, a Prophet company, and will continue to deliver best-in-class research in digital transformation, social business and governance, customer experience, big data, and the Internet of Things.

The flight instruments are categorized on the basis of altimeter, gyroscope, autopilot, magnetic compass, and sensors.

"Now, once we make a correction for how much land motion is at the tide gauge, or how much its moving up and down, were able to get a better picture of the really small inaccuracies within the altimeter record."
