Google Maps is one of the most used Google mobile applications as a search tool to find any place and know how to navigate to it. In addition, this application provides other information with which we can know how to measure the height above sea level in Google Maps
Knowing the height above sea level of any location can be of interest for questions related to meteorology since if there are more altitude atmospheric pressure and temperature varies.The unit of measurement for altitude is usually in meters. Normally we always talk about meters above sea level and it appears abbreviated or only with the m. or also with m.s.n.m (meters above sea level).
How to know the altitude in Google Maps?
Google Maps will not provide us with the altitude value as such, but it will help us through the latitude and longitude data that shows when we look for any point on a map. Then we will only have to put this data on a website and we will know the exact altitude of that place.
To find out the altitude of a place we just have to open the Google Maps application on our phone. Then we will look in the search box for the place we want to know its altitude. When it appears, click on the red icon on the map. The location information will then open at the bottom.We will slide up with our finger to display the complete information.
Now we just have to get over the coordinates that are the numbers that are in parentheses. Hold down to copy the figures. Now we have to open our web browser and go to the web https://www.advancedconverter.com/ and click on “find the altitude of a point. There we will paste the coordinates without parentheses and click on "search". The location and altitude in meters will be displayed.
How high am I?
Altitude is an important piece of information to know if, for example, you are going to climb a mountain to avoid ending up dizzy or exhausted by altitude sickness that occurs when oxygen decreases. If you have climbed a hill or mountain or from any other place, do you ask yourself, how high am I? We show you with which other applications you can know this data.
In addition to Google Maps another Google application this time Google Earth provides you with altitude simply and quickly. You just have to have the application downloaded on your device and activate GPS location. Then open the application, a map will appear with the area in which you are and on the right side the information on the height above sea level at which you are.
There are other mobile applications that inform us of the altitude, one of them is Altitude, designed only for Android devices. After installing and opening it, it will tell us at what height we are. For mobile phones with the iOS system there is the Altimeter+ application. This uses the ASTER system (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer) which is much more accurate than GPS, although if it doesn't work for whatever reason, it will also use the GPS connection to make its altitude calculation.Both Altitude and Altimeter+ also provide the temperature of the area we are in.
