Accuracy

How accurate is this?

22 m low This 3D map reads 6,403 m at the summit; the official height is 6,425 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off.

Source	Summit	Difference
Official height (Wikidata)	6,425 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	6,403 m	-22 m
