Accuracy

How accurate is this?

10 m low This 3D map reads 3,182 m at the summit; the official height is 3,192 m.

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

Source	Summit	Difference
Official height (Wikidata)	3,192 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	3,182 m	-10 m
