Accuracy

How accurate is this?

36 m low This 3D map reads 7,093 m at the summit; the official height is 7,129 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off. The 90 m model misses by 46 m.

Official height (Wikidata)	7,129 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	7,093 m	-36 m
