SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETERMINING WHEN AN ESTIMATED ALTITUDE OF A MOBILE DEVICE CAN BE USED FOR CALIBRATION OR LOCATION DETERMINATION

Determining when an estimated altitude of a mobile device can be used for calibration or location determination. Particular systems and methods determine an area in which the mobile device is expected to reside, determine an altitude value of each section of a plurality of sections in the area, determine if the altitude values meet a threshold condition, and determine that the estimated altitude of the mobile device can be used for determining the position of the mobile device or for calibrating a pressure sensor of the mobile device when the altitude values meet the threshold condition.
