Trying to change altitude fron the mountain Annapurna 1 in Nepal, but got error message
error while saving:
elevation validation check elevation 8091 gtopo30=5839

How can I correct or let it correct to the right altitude?
Google Earth showed half of the annapurna massif as one big plateau of about 6000m a few years back, but they corrected these data about a 2 years ago. Maybe some of that old data of that same source still exsists in your database.

Thanks Jacques, I have improved the consistency check and modified the elevation.

The same is happening for Gauri Sankar http://www.geonames.org/1283400/gauri-sankar.html

I changed the consistency check once more to be more tolerant. And I have updated the elevation of Gauri Sankar to 7134m.
