Reporting map errors

Postby morvy » Wed May 09, 2012 9:50 pm

It's nearly impossible for me to correct error on map, when I'm driving. It would be great, if I can swipe (!) up to save that place in memory and when I'm finished with driving, I can correct it. Or maybe you can add correction online in browser?

Add a Map Error report while driving. Then go online to the editor and review your drives. Along your driven routes you should be able to find your map error, fix it, and then mark it as solved.

Hey guys, does anyone know how to delete an incorrect speed camera location? The one that is bothering me is listed on every speed camera database I have seen but it's wrong. Really frustrating! In case anyone can help, the error is on the Princes freeway between Melbourne and Geelong in Victoria, Australia. The map says there is a speed camera on the Princess Freeway at Beach Road but it is incorrect. False positives destroy your confidence in these kinds of apps pretty quickly so I hope it can be fixed.

Do you mean go to the map section on my phone? Sorry but I am new to this and am still working out how to use it. For some reason when I try to send an update on my phone it tells me it failed.

Talking about forum

If you wish someone else to take a look at the problem, post in
Update requests: viewforum.php?f=199

If you just need a road unlocked so you can edit it yourself, post in
Unlock requests: viewforum.php?f=265

in both forums there is a sticky on the community approved standard of making these requests.
