Accuracy

How accurate is this?

118 m low This 3D map reads 7,438 m at the summit; the official height is 7,556 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off. The 90 m model misses by 123 m.

Official height (Wikidata)	7,556 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	7,438 m	-118 m
