In this talk, we present an algorithm to compute p-adic heights on hyperelliptic curves with good reduction. Our algorithm improves a previous algorithm of Balakrishnan and Besser by being considerably simpler and faster and allowing even degree models. We discuss two applications of our work: to apply the quadratic Chabauty method for rational and integral points on hyperelliptic curves and to test the p-adic Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer conjecture in examples numerically. This is joint work with Steffen Müller.
