Abstract
Determining, broadcasting and using reference pressure data in a network of transmitters. Particular embodiments described herein include machines that select atmospheric data from weather stations within a transmitter network, use the selected atmospheric data to determine a reference atmospheric value, and transmit the reference atmospheric value from a transmitter to a mobile device for use in estimating an altitude of the mobile device. The atmospheric data may include any of reference pressures form the weather stations, measured temperatures from the weather stations, or reference temperatures from the weather stations. The reference atmospheric value may include a reference pressure value of a reference altitude, or a reference temperature value.
