Abstract
A personal monitoring system of the present disclosure has a cellular network and a sensing device. The sensing device has an interface that couples the sensing device to the cellular network and to a user for sensing a location of the user. The sensing device transmits data indicative of the location to a computing device via the cellular network. The system further has logic that determines a baseline elevation based on a first location of the user and a change in elevation at a second location of the user from the baseline elevation. The logic transmits data indicative of the baseline elevation and the change in elevation to the computing device via the cellular network.
