Accuracy

How accurate is this?

219 m low This 3D map reads 2,875 m at the summit; the official height is 3,094 m.

Why: a 30 m terrain model averages each cell, so a sharp summit gets rounded off. The 90 m model misses by 225 m.

Source	Summit	Difference
Official height (Wikidata)	3,094 m	—
Copernicus GLO-30 (used on this page)	2,875 m	-219 m
Copernicus GLO-90	2,869 m	-225 m
