The International Standard Atmosphere (ISA) is a mathematical model which provides a vertical distribution of averaged atmospheric properties such as air Temperature, Pressure, Density and Viscosity. Starting from an input altitude, this application computes mean air properties according to the last revision of U.S. Standard Atmosphere 1976, as determined by ISOs TC 20/SC 6 technical committee. The 1976 model is identical with the earlier 1962 standard up to 51 km, and the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) standard up to 32 km.

Standard Atmosphere model’s main function is to provide common reference conditions that can be used for aircraft design and performance calculation purposes as well as for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. Therefore this app can be useful to aeronautical and aerospace engineers as well as to CFD operators and pilots performing rough and preliminary calculations.

Key features:
• 3 different measurement systems including International System (SI), Imperial System (EN) and US Customary System (US)
• 3 different gravitational models:
- Constant
- Geopotential
- WGS84
• It allows to choose non standard conditions by manually setting sea level temperature and pressure.
• It provides air properties up to the end of Mesosphere (84,852m or 278,385ft)
• It provides full explanation of embedded mathematical and physical models and formulas
• Modern interface and iphone 4s/5/6/6+ display optimization
