Abstract
A challenging task in using pedestrian navigation and guidance services indoors is to determine the correct floor of a user in a multi-storey building because most indoor location techniques only provide 2-D information. In this case it can be recommended to augment the position determination system with a barometric pressure sensor for direct observation of height differences. In the research project NAVIO (Pedestrian

utdoor Environments) tests with different sensors have been performed and their results are presented. The tests show that it is possible to determine the correct floor of a user using a barometric pressure sensor as the standard deviation of the estimation of the height differences is better than ± 1 m.
