{n} the art of measuring heights
The science and techniques involved in using altimeters
determination of the altitude of an object or surface with respect to a fixed level, like sea level See altimeter
The measurement of altitude or height In aeronautical science, altimetry is equivalent to hypsometry
A technique for the measurement of the elevation of the sea, land or ice surface For example, the height of the sea surface (with respect to the centre of the Earth or, more conventionally, with respect to a standard "ellipsoid of revolution") can be measured from space by current state-of-the-art radar altimetry with centrimetric precision Altimetry has the advantage of being a measurement relative to a geocentric reference frame, rather than relative to land level as for a tide gauge, and of affording quasi-global coverage
The art of measuring altitudes, or heights
The science of measuring altitude
{i} instrument used to measure altitude; science of measuring altitudes
