Accuracy

How accurate is this?

72 m low This 3D map reads 3,408 m at the summit; the official height is 3,480 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off. The 90 m model misses by 82 m.

Source	Summit	Difference
Official height (Wikidata)	3,480 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	3,408 m	-72 m
