This 3D model of Pu‘u ‘Ō‘ō's crater was created from thermal images during an overflight of the cone. The deepest portion of the crater is about 320 meters (1050 feet) below the crater floor that existed prior to April 30.
Is there a list of mountain peak elevations in the United States?
The USGS doesn't have specific data for current mountain peak elevations other than what exists in an Elevations and Distances in the United States booklet. To determine an approximate elevation at a specific point, use the spot elevation tool query in the in The National Map Viewer or search the “Summit” feature class via the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) Search Domestic Names. Elevations derived from these tools are approximate because they are interpolated from terrain elevations sampled on a grid and might not reflect the highest elevation of a peak.
Historical USGS topographic maps (published before 2009) will show a surveyed elevation on a summit, ridge, or range if one exists. The TopoView application provides an easy way to search for historical maps and view them online.
For the most accurate surveyed elevations of mountain peaks, please reference the National Geodetic Survey datasheets.
