Mount Everest 3D terrain model

Nepal · China

3D terrain model of Mount Everest with satellite imagery

About this model

The frame takes in Everest (8,849 m), Lhotse and Nuptse, with the Khumbu Glacier winding south from the Western Cwm. The relief is so large that a modest height exaggeration already looks spectacular.

The frame is 18 km across, centred on 27.9881° N, 86.9250° E. Open it in the editor to change the style, exaggerate the height, turn it into a circle, or move the frame — then download it for your 3D printer, as a poster or as a 360° video.

Measured on the same elevation grid as the model (Terrain Tiles, AWS Open Data). Summit heights can read a little lower than surveyed ones because each sample averages a small area.
