Underground car parks

Post by zerkms
Guys, how do you deal with underground car parks? Would you just draw some area on the ground even though there is no parking on the ground?

I have seen this done, yes. It can be confusing to untrained editors, though. It may be better to just have a parking lot landmark with few segments as the GPS reception under there is near useless.

Are you talking plot roads or landmark? We are not marking most parking lots with landmarks. Parking lots/car parks should be identified in foursquare which feeds the [P] icons to Waze.

I don't mark underground lots except maybe a short entrance/exit plot segment at appropriate locations but then only if I'm seeing URs or other routing issues due to the lack of such segments.

Could you please point to a particular park so that I could get the idea how to deal with that in a conventional way?
