Youre completely right, the altitude isn't correct. But this is a small error normaly. Only level isn't working, but in your case, your location is out of range. Strange, hope that MIB.42 can help you out.

Please post your question again in the New Code Contribution tread. Bugfixes are presented there.

what's wrong with negative longitude??
Last time I checked with Google maps - Wisconsin was somethere around 44;-89

Try generating a bigger map (world size, perhaps) and see where it lands you...

-88deg simply means W88deg since if a point is to the west of the prime meridian, the longitude is negative.
