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. -- Jeff-1.0 wa6fwi http://www.foxsmercantile.com |
