More on the Tissot T-Touch's AltimeterThe Tissot T-Touch

I think this is a great way to quickly andeasily indicate trends since a measurement in hectoPascals is completely lost onme, and presumably most other non-meteorologists, as well. I did test the accuracyof its measurements, however, by comparing it to the report on my trusty OregonScientific all hazards radio. The watch reported a barometric pressure of 1007hPa and the radio reported 1018.6 millibars (which are equivalent to hectoPascals,but are easier to say over the radio). Looks pretty close to me. The T-Touch uses the last eight hours of data to calculate trends atmospherictrends rather than just reporting short term (and potentially misleading) trends.It also detects unnaturally rapid changes in altitude and compensates accordinglyin order to prevent them from throwing off the trend calculation.More on the Tissot T-Touch's AltimeterThe Tissot T-Touch can calculate your approximate altitude by measuring thebarometric pressure and temperature. Since high and low pressure fronts affectthe barometric pressure, the altimeter really needs to be calibrated often in orderto be accurate. In fact, it's probably best used to measure ascents over relativelyshort periods of time -- before there is time for the atmospheric pressure to changesignificantly. Ideally, you would calibrate the altimeter with your current altitudebefore you begin your ascent, then use the altimeter to measure your progress.You can usually use signs, maps, or a GPS device to calibrate the altimeter.
