I'm going to chime in, not to add fuel to the fire, but for a point of view.doctorkb wrote:
Then please share with us why other Champs are bragging about how they have a local airport working as a POI. (ref: viewtopic.php?f=129&t=39628&p=433788&hilit=pdx#p433788 )
I have MCI mapped, and the economy parking lots. Locals who know that Southwest departs out of Terminal B, most of the time know that they can park in Economy Lot B to get a shuttle straight to the door of Terminal B.
But here is the break down, Home Depot is a 'for profit' business. The airport isn't so much of a 'for profit' as to need to drive customers in for sales with the likes of discounts and other offers that the biz sub-domain offers.
I browsed to San Francisco area on the client last night to look for traffic jams to compare to the recently released Google Maps, there were plenty of Home Depot POI Pins on the map. That is why we stressed we don't map businesses because not all businesses can feasibly be mapped in a sense that adds value. Some businesses could get missed, and that would in a sense could be looked at as biased editors only mapping their favorite businesses.
But to map an airport is crucial for some respects so people can get details of getting in and out of an airport, not a big box store's parking lot. Anyone who needs a flight to catch can find it, at one location, there are many places that sell hammers. Places that sell hammers come and go more often than airports. With a bit of oversight, we can also get behind and forget about that one store that closed and relocated or closed for good.
