There are very few true altitude tables. Most tables use a conversion table so a sea level table can be used at altitude. In essence you treat your dive as being deeper than it really is - which has the effect of decreasing the no-stop time limits. Time limits need to be decreased because you are surfacing to a lesser atmospheric pressure - which is analogous to flying after a dive.
