This disclosure provides a vertical position and velocity determination system for inertial measurement unit (IMU) integrated with a barometric altimeter in the same device (IMU-baro). The system includes a rate of turn input connected to receive a measured IMU-baro rate of turn; an acceleration input connected to receive a measured IMU-baro acceleration; a barometric pressure input connected to receive a measured IMU-baro altitude; a first Kalman filter connected to the rate of turn input and to the acceleration input to estimate a roll and pitch of the IMU-baro based on the measured IMU-baro rate of turn and the measured IMU-baro acceleration; and a second Kalman filter connected to the acceleration input, to the barometric pressure input, and to the first Kalman filter.
