Hello,

I noted a difference between the altitude reported by aircraft tag and the one showed by IVAO Webeye, I attach tw screenshots to show the situation,

Thanks for the feature anyway, it is great

UPDATE: after a little while both altitudes became consistent

Hello! Thanks for posting.

This is to be expected! We update the position and altitude data _every second_, while IVAO Webeye updates _every 15 seconds_. This means that Webeye will lag behind, resulting in different values as the aircraft climbs or descends.

Kind Regards,  
Malte

Hello,  
thanks for the answer. You are right: as a matter of fact I reload webeye every 2 minutes to limit connectio and srver load.  
Best regards

Guido
