THE HEIGHTMARK GUIDE

How to compare your elevations with Mount Fuji and Everest

Heightmark’s Elevation Panorama places your saved marks and world landmarks on one vertical scale. Open Panorama after saving a place, then scroll or zoom to compare its elevation with Mount Fuji, Everest, and other references.

Step by step

  1. Save a place first

    Record an elevation where you stand, or import an original photo with coordinates, elevation, and capture time. Save the result as a mark.

  2. Look at both sides of the scale

    Open Panorama. Your personal marks appear on the left and reference landmarks on the right. Both use the same vertical scale.

  3. Zoom to the heights you want to compare

    Use pinch or the zoom controls, then scroll to a reference such as Mount Fuji. Change between meters and feet in Settings.

  4. Keep a view of the collection

    Use Panorama’s share action to export a tall image of the collection. You can also make a card for an individual place.

What does a 3,000-meter place mean on this scale?

Mount Fuji is shown at 3,776 m and Everest at 8,849 m in Heightmark. A mark at 3,000 m sits 776 m below the Fuji reference. This is a difference between elevations, not the climbing distance or elevation gain of a route.

Personal marks and reference landmarks share a vertical scale. Example records shown.
