3) And then there's the inaccuracy ... how could they miss an entire lake and a dam??
Nice critic. I am not defending Google Maps in any way. Google is a business and has to deliver. Yet I still have a long way to go before working myself to your level of frustration.
As I told you, I reported the problem with the dam, the road on top of it and going further and the reservoir. I got an answer today acknowledging the problem and a promise that it would be attended to quickly. They'll send me another email whenever it is done.
Now tell me, which mapping service do you use that is telling you about road surface, shoulders and is accurate enough to satisfy your requirements?
