Accuracy

How accurate is this?

30 m low This 3D map reads 4,040 m at the summit; the official height is 4,070 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off. The 90 m model misses by 36 m.

Source	Summit	Difference
Official height (Wikidata)	4,070 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	4,040 m	-30 m
Copernicus GLO-90	4,034 m	-36 m
