Extreme map correction

[feejo]

You might find me crazy, but I did my whole city map correction. I compared it to Garmin map and sometime a paper map. Foud couple of tiny mistakes, it dose not mather I correct them. sometime it is just a tiny street between 2 road that make a difference in routing cause now it is blocked. And Yes I found some error on Garmin map.
If you want to give it a try.

well i must say that this navteq map of my area is better (not by much) than the teleatlas on my 920. Too bad you couldnt change names and stuff on garmin like you can tomtom

TeleAtlas is the company that makes Tom Tom's maps. They bought the company last year. Navteq makes Garmin and Magellan's maps.

I correct everything on my TT, and send it to mapshare, most error where to block streets, missing streets where added to, let's say reported.

I was just looking on TeleAtlas' website, and they had corrected some of the corrections that I submitted through their site, that are still incorrect on the 7.10 USA map. There are still a lot of missing streets that have existed for years.

I'm not sure how long it takes TeleAtlas but Navteq can take as long as three years after you report an issue to get it corrected. I assume with either it would depend on how many reports they get about an error. The more reports, the faster they get it verified.
