Accuracy

How accurate is this?

35 m low This 3D map reads 2,936 m at the summit; the official height is 2,972 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off. The 90 m model misses by 50 m.

Source	Summit	Difference
Official height (Wikidata)	2,972 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	2,936 m	-35 m
Copernicus GLO-90	2,921 m	-50 m
