after years of constantly reporting a missing address through the apple maps app and to tomtom's website and getting no response, i finally got apple maps to put my street into their database by emailing a complaint to tim cook. of course they put in exactly my street and not the two other ones one block over that i also told them were missing, but im sure the world's most valuable company is totally on top of this

google maps had a portion of my neighborhood mapped wrong (had a street mapped as a cul de sac that was a through street). I used their feedback interface to easily report the issue and I think it was fixed not too long after that :shrugs: thats my mapping experience

yeah man its totally hosed UP that someone would want to recoup the cost of sending billions of dollars worth of satellites into space and then spending billions more on development and hosting of software to view the data.

the only people who care about street mapping enough to put any work into it are commercial entities, both the companies on the streets being mapped and the companies doing the mapping. also that bing agreement is for satellite imagery only. birds eye and street view are explicitly forbidden from use. the goal being for people to use the images when updating open street maps content so that when Microsoft processes the changes into their own system the images and mapping correspond without any extra work.

like if you are traveling anywhere in the world you can find out your precise* location with a rudimentary receiver. that poo poo is amazing and faster than any other type of navigation.
