#41: David Harrington's DISCUSS


Comment(by bernard_aboba@…):

Here is the corrected text for Section 2.4.3:

2.4.3. Altitude in Floors (AType = 2)

A value of two for Altitude Type indicates that the Altitude value is
measured in floors. Since altitude in meters may not be known within
a building, a floor indication may be more useful. For AType = 2,
the Altitude value is expressed as a 30 bit, fixed point, twos
complement integer with 22 integer bits and 8 fractional bits.

This value is relevant only in relation to a building; the value is
relative to the ground level of the building. Numbering starts at
ground level, which is floor 0 regardless of local convention.
Floors located below ground level are represented by negative values.
Larger values represent floors that are farther away from floor 0
such that:

- if positive, the floor value is farther above the ground floor.
- if negative, the floor value is farther below the ground floor.

Non-integer values can be used to represent intermediate or sub-
floors, such as mezzanine levels. Example: a mezzanine between floor
1 and floor 2 could be represented as a value of 1.25. Example:
mezzanines between floor 4 and floor 5 could be represented as values
of 4.5 and 4.75.
