Found an error in Mapsource?

Be sure to let Garmin know using the error reporting form on their website.

Re: Mapsource Error Reporting

I just got a response from Garmin for my error submission, with their thanks. They suggested I also report it to THEIR source for data here:
NAVTEQ - NAVTEQ Map Reporterâ„¢

I am beginning to see why the error I noticed is showing up all over the place - it seems most get their data from the same source!

Re: Mapsource Error Reporting

I reported a misplaced Wal_Mart. The address was correct but Lat/Long was the next street over. No response. Google Maps had the same error. Google moved the store, but the pharmacy was still on the wrong street. DUH. The pharmacy and the store have the same street address. After three map updates, Garmin still has it wrong. If the address is 1510 SE 5th street, why would the icon be on the corner of 5th st and 19th avenue?
