    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altimeter_setting

    QFE - is the barometric altimeter setting that causes an altimeter to read zero when at the reference datum of a particular airfield (in practice, the reference datum is either an airfield center or a runway threshold). In ISA temperature conditions the altimeter will read the height above the airfield/runway in the vicinity of the airfield.

    Indicated altitude is the reading on the altimeter when it is set to the local barometric pressure at mean sea level. In UK aviation radiotelephony usage, the vertical distance of a level, a point or an object considered as a point, measured from mean sea level; this is referred to over the radio as altitude.(see QNH) [2]

    For a location which has an elevation lower than that of the datum plane, the original position will move closer to the central point of the image. [4] Figure 11. This diagram shows an example of displacement. A is the location that is lower than the datum plane. It moves inward to the central point. B is the location that is higher than the ...
