That's pretty neat. I looked in my area and there are a bunch of bugs
reported, but I can't for the life of me figure out what is wrong. They
are
reported in Spanish, which I can read so-so, but I know the areas pretty
well
and can't see major problems.
Does it have to do with the way iphones report the errors? Can they be
off
by a fair bit in terms of distance?
I've been working these for a while, and it's often difficult to figure
out what's wrong. In a few cases, you can see the green trace of the
SmartPhone is off the road by about 5 or 6 meters.
In some cases, drivers obviously cannot report bugs while driving through
the affected area, so I look around at things nearby that can match their
description:
1 way streets or new construction - (usually requires a survey)
Bridges - (Aerial imagery, a "turn now" while on bridge sort of thing)
A road needing a dual carriageway because it told them to turn across a
divided highway.
Missing or incorrect routing connection details: left turn lane, missing
divided highway connector.
About half of them are just head scratchers. Speed limits are not useful
because they don't exactly identify the start and end of a speed zone.
