Altimeter Setting

From the user, a station pressure and a station elevation are given. To calculate altimeter setting, the station pressure must be in units of millibars . To see how to convert station pressure to millibars see the link below:

Pressure Conversion

Also to calculate the altimeter setting, the station elevation must be in units of . To convert meters to feet, see the equation below:

formula

Then, the altimeter setting can be calculated using the formula below:

 

Then, the answer can be converted to different pressure units. See the link above to see how to do this.
