issue; or a true issue with the location you entered.

I see people talking about co-ordinate precision of less than 100 metres. So how are they determining their position? Do they each have a differential GPS in their pocket? If someone has some clever facility to determine an accurate position, then please tell us.


I got my position via http://www.whereonearth.com/demos/geocode/. Just type in your (European) address and voila there you are: the returned coords were pretty precise and only shifted my actual position about 25 meters northwards into my neighbours garage (see map).

As some others mentioned before, GeoURL has some helpful resources at
