Topographic elevation is the vertical distance above the reference geoid, a precise mathematical model of the Earth's sea level as an equipotential gravitational surface. Topographic prominence is the elevation difference between the summit and the highest or key col to a higher summit. For this article, North America is defined as the continental landmass of the Americas extending north from the Isthmus of Panamá. A total of 99 of these highest peaks are located in the United States,[1] 17 in Canada,[2] 9 in México,[3] and 2 in Guatemala.
