Compare the stated dimensions
The comparison uses the number in each fact sheet: altitude, height, diameter, length or distance, depending on the reference. Two values in metres do not necessarily describe the same property.
Source and limitations
Catalogue value to check against the source; not individually audited.
Mount Fuji: interpretation of the stratovolcano's broad cone, summit crater and tongues of snow. The value compares altitude above sea level, distinct from the apparent height above the depicted foot.
