The summit of a mountain or hill may be measured in three principal ways:

Of the highest major summits of Greenland, four peaks exceed 3000 meters (9843 feet) elevation and 24 peaks equal or exceed 2000 meters (6562 feet) elevation.

Of the most prominent summits of Greenland, only Gunnbjørn Fjeld exceeds 3000 meters (9843 feet) of topographic prominence. Six peaks exceed 2000 meters (6562 feet) and 38 peaks are ultra-prominent summits with at least 1500 meters (4921 feet) of topographic prominence.

Of the most isolated major summits of Greenland, only Gunnbjørn Fjeld exceeds 3000 kilometers (1864 miles) of topographic isolation. Four peaks exceed 500 kilometers (310.7 miles) of topographic isolation, 13 peaks exceed 200 kilometers (124.3 miles), and 21 peaks exceed 100 kilometers (62.14 miles) of topographic isolation.

The summit of Gunnbjørn Fjeld is the highest point on the Island of Greenland, Kalaallit Nunaat, the Kingdom of Denmark, and the entire Arctic.
