Accuracy

How accurate is this?

10 m low This 3D map reads 4,253 m at the summit; the official height is 4,263 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off. The 90 m model misses by 36 m.

Official height (Wikidata)	4,263 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	4,253 m	-10 m
