I sent a message to this list last week about the POI's being far off in my
community. I was in hopes that version 5 would fix the problem, but no
luck. Then I was hopeful that version 6 would bring the improvements, but
not so according to the tests a friend and I did with her Sendero version 6.
I sent messages to this list when we were current at version 4 and my
comments were attributed to skip and dismissed. It wasn't until a sighted
friend gained the attention of Charles by looking at visual map data. I was
told that Tele atlas would come to my area and check things out. This was
to result in improvements for version 5. I guess it helped with street
locations, but the POI's are miserably off base.
Someone on this list suggested that I create user POI's. That task would be
daunting for an entire community. It is not even a little helpful to
discover that a POI for a business is 800 feet off the mark.
My question"
How can I make this problem obvious so that it will gain the attention of
those who need to fix it? I would be glad to create some user POI's
demonstrating the real locations as compared with those offered by Sendero.
I cannot see a reason to update my version until things can be more accurate
where I live.
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.
