GPS Altitude                    : 253 m Below Sea Level
when e.g., http://metapicz.com/ says it is Above Sea Level.

Interesting.

This file contains an invalid value for GPSAltitudeRef.  0 is for above sea level, 1 is for below, and this file has a 2 which isn't allowed.  ExifTool interprets this effectively as not above sea level, which isn't necessarily incorrect.
