Accuracy

How accurate is this?

119 m low This 3D map reads 8,044 m at the summit; the official height is 8,163 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off. The 90 m model misses by 128 m.

Source	Summit	Difference
Official height (Wikidata)	8,163 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	8,044 m	-119 m
Copernicus GLO-90	8,035 m	-128 m
