This manual provides standard values of atmospheric parameters in tabular form for levels up to 80 kilometres. It also gives values of constants and coefficients, as well as the underlying equations used in the calculation of the atmospheric parameters. The document is intended for use in calculations in the design of aircraft, in presenting test results of aircraft and their components under identical conditions, and in facilitating standardization in the development and calibration of instruments. Its use is also recommended in the processing of data from geophysical and meteorological observations. This manual intends to facilitate the uniform application of the ICAO Standard Atmosphere defined in Annex 8 - Airworthiness of Aircraft and provides sets of data that are accurate enough for practical applications (identical to ISO standard atmosphere).
