It lies to the southwest of the larger crater Robertson and to the east of Ohm.The outer rim of Alter has been degraded by subsequent erosion most notably at the northern and southern extremes. There is a small crater lying across the south-southeast rim. A cleft runs across the floor from the southern rim toward the north-northeast.
