An altitude difference measuring apparatus for measuring the difference between the altitudes at a first and second points on the basis of the barometric difference between the points, having an air pressure holding section with an electromagnetic valve for hermetrically containing an amount of air. At the first place an amount of the ambient air is held hermetrically in the air pressure holding section, and at the second place the barometric difference between the air pressure in the air pressure holding section and the ambient air pressure is converted into an electric signal, and in accordance with the electric signal the difference between the altitudes at the first and second points is indicated.
