definition: Also called Pressure Altitude. Barometric Altitude is the altitude which corresponds to a given value of atmospheric pressure according to the ICAO standard atmosphere. It is the indicated altitude of a pressure altimeter at an altimeter setting of 29.92 inches of mercury (1013.2 mb); therefore it is the indicated altitude above the 1013.2 mb constant-pressure surface.
