Accuracy

How accurate is this?

206 m low This 3D map reads 6,698 m at the summit; the official height is 6,904 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off. The 90 m model misses by 213 m.

Official height (Wikidata)	6,904 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	6,698 m	-206 m
