## What is WALT Calculator?

WALT Calculator is a toolbox containing many useful weather, location, and target related computations.

WALT: Weather, Altitude, Lat/Long, Target

Features:
1. Density Altitude Calculator
Great for pilots, shooters, or weather enthusiasts, the WALT's density altitude calculator can provide a useful meteorological metric for comparing performance in differing weather conditions.  For devices with a pressure sensor (iPhone 6 and later), DA can be automatically calculated from the device's own pressure sensor.

2. Field Elevation Calculator
Know the ambient/station pressure and the alimeter setting/barometric pressure? Calculate your elevation above mean sea level with this calculator. Know your elevation but not your ambient pressure?  With the field elevation calculator, you can calculate any of these three metrics!

3. Geographic Coordinates Converter
Convert a geographic location from degrees, minutes, and seconds into decimal degrees, decimal minutes, or UTM.

4. Geographic Distance Calculator
Find the distance between two points on the globe, given a set of geographic coordinates.

5. Target Calculator
Designed primarily for shooting sports, the target calculator can compute distance to target, given target size and angle. Or target size, given target distance and size. This is a great complement to a mildot or MOA reticle optic.

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2019-04-11, version 1.6*

Latest fix works perfect. Thank you. 

Great app. Use it often for shooting sports.

### 3/5 — Needs work

*2019-03-17, version 1.5.2*

I can’t select the top option making this app useless. Good idea but needs user experience improvement

### 4/5 — Lat Long to Decimal converter

*2018-07-15*

The selection to “decimals of degrees” line is almost completely covered by the tool bar at the top of the page, making its selection virtually impossible. 
Apart from that, pretty good.

### 2/5 — Ok but issue with degC dew point

*2017-05-13*

Works ok mostly, but there is an annoying bug that won't allow selection of degC dew point no matter what I try and select. Deg F and % relative humidity are fine but like most of the developed world I work in deg C and would appreciate a fix to make this work

### 5/5 — Works

*2015-11-13, version 1.2*

Simple and handy

### 5/5 — Works!

*2014-06-27, version 1.0.1*

Great app, works like it should. Great tool for the precision long range shooter.
