Yes, there are now 8005 cameras in the database with 185 additions and 419 changes applied in the new release.
The database is improving monthly and rapidly. Can I take this opportunity to thank everyone who is literally overwhelming us with support and additions.
By the ever changing nature of the medium, the database will always have discrepancies so we'll never make 100%, but keep those reports coming in and we'll reach, what I believe, our realistic 99% accuracy target pretty soon! |

We have feb camera data on our i3, when out this weekend we had the red light camera warning come on at traffic lights which was correct as camera was there but about a 100 yards before this camera there is a yellow box gatso type camera and this one didnt show on sat nav in either navigate or just on mode.
Q Would this be because of the red light warning being so close to the gatso???
If its not a logged one how do i get a exact location with my i3, not sure how to get lat & long to post. You may now have it on your new march speed camera files
thanks |

Find the location at StreetMap www.streetmap.co.uk click on the exact loation of the camera, making sure the page refreshes and the arrow points at the cameras location. Then move down the page and look for
"Click here to convert/measure coordinates "
Click on that and it'll give you Long and Lat. |
