Is it possible to submit corrections to the POI databases?
For example the UK petrol station list shows a Shell garage (Tubs Hill Garage) in Sevenoaks approx 2 miles, as far as I can tell, from it's actual location.
Cheers

Yes please.
Use this page to locate the POI, click on the POI and then click on the ID number at the top left of the map (something like Cheam Library (Transport - Parking) ID:191779). This will fill the fields above with the current info - might take a few seconds. Make any corrections and set the Action to Change Existing POI and submit |

Paul's beaten me to it but I explained this in detail recently in response to a similar question here. _________________ Darren Griffin |

Thanks both
I wasn't sure if only the Camera database was susceptible to user update.
