I started to report map data errors to TeleAtlas at their feedback form:

http://www.teleatlas.com/stellent/idcplg?IdcService=SS_GET_PAGE&nodeId=9348

However, it asks for X and Y co-ordinates, a form I've never seen used with WGS84. I assume that:

- WGS84 X Co-ordinate is the Longitude (+ meaning East, - meaning West)
- WGS84 Y Co-ordinate is the Latitude (+ meaning North, - meaning South)
- They want the coordinates in degrees and it's desimals: DDD.DDDDDDD
(instead of for example DDDMM.MMMMMMM or DDDMMSS.SSSSSSS)

Do yawl think this is correct? I also asked this from TeleAtlas support, haven't received an answer yet.

Yes, I've always used decimal degrees as the co-ordinates and they have always been accepted.

How about the rest of the form? X coordinate being Longitude, + meaning East and so forth?
