Accuracy

How accurate is this?

136 m low This 3D map reads 7,137 m at the summit; the official height is 7,273 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off. The 90 m model misses by 170 m.

Source	Summit	Difference
Official height (Wikidata)	7,273 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	7,137 m	-136 m
Copernicus GLO-90	7,103 m	-170 m
