1. A method of generating a synthetic pressure altitude, comprising:

  • providing a static air temperature to a data processing device;

    providing a wind velocity to the data processing device;

    providing a ground velocity to the data processing device;

    providing a geometric altitude to the data processing device; and

    performing a numerical integration based on the static air temperature, the wind velocity, the ground velocity, and the geometric altitude, the wind velocity and ground velocity used to cancel errors of a static air column model.
