Is there a way for APRS users to submit corrections
to Google Maps and Mapquest?

As an example, Google maps shows my street address wrong.
Meaning, I have to offset the address a bit to show the
right location.

I've sent a message to Google using their "errors or
correction" on the map page and got a rather terse response
to the effect that they couldn't block my address.

Which was NOT what I asked. I asked them to correct the
street numbers to line up with the physical locations.

All things considered, simply based on the amount of data
involved, that you get anything even reasonably right is
amazing, and you just have to bear that in mind.

Pre-Google, Thomas Betts map books had their share of
errors as well.
