How accurate is this?

31 m low This 3D map reads 3,874 m at the summit; the official height is 3,905 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off. The 90 m model misses by 38 m.

Source	Summit	Difference
Official height (Wikidata)	3,905 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	3,874 m	-31 m
