Abstract

One or more computing devices, systems, and/or methods for calibrating barometric sensors and/or determining altitudes of devices are provided. In an example, one or more barometric pressure measures are determined using a barometric sensor of a device. One or more locations of the device are determined based upon one or more global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals and one or more corrective signals associated with the one or more GNSS signals. One or more reference values are determined based upon the one or more locations. A barometric offset is determined based upon the one or more barometric pressure measures and the one or more reference values. A first barometric measurement is performed using the barometric sensor to determine a first barometric pressure measure. An adjusted barometric pressure measure and/or an altitude of the device are determined based upon the first barometric pressure measure and the barometric offset.
