Accuracy

How accurate is this?

18 m low This 3D map reads 3,186 m at the summit; the official height is 3,204 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off. The 90 m model misses by 37 m.

Source	Summit	Difference
Official height (Wikidata)	3,204 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	3,186 m	-18 m
Copernicus GLO-90	3,167 m	-37 m
