Mountain Geography and Data: Comparing the World's Highest Peaks

A mountain ranking becomes much more useful when the measurement is clearly defined.

For a basic elevation comparison, useful fields include:

Peak
Elevation
Country
Mountain range
First ascent
Continent

The world's top 10 peaks all exceed 8,000 meters and are located in the Himalayan or Karakoram region.

The same dataset can also be extended to the Seven Summits and all 14 eight-thousanders.
