Japlabot Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 I thought it was ecurity related but it is not the dam itself. Probable hapens to fall on the edge between two aerial photographs, one taken before and one after the bridge was built. I lies on the border so the imagery for the complete road on either side might only go up to the bridge so the middle bottom half misses out on up to date imagery.

Japlabot Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 Even with Bing you can see that there are many overlapping images going in different directions. The Bing loses the shadow of the bridge before the water starts, the stream is completely different north and south of the bridge. There is no complete imagery of the whole bridge as a single image. It seems Google just missed updating the imagery for the bottom half. And Apple's maps must have come from Bing's bird's eyes from the look of it.

Rudie32 Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 It's just at first glance, this just appears to be an apple user shouting "see! It's not just us!" (I don't actually know if he is or not, didn't check) It's like, well. yeah, and? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remixedcat Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 mapping and LBS providers need to ensure stuff's accurate, as it may adversely affect others... please use any mapping provider's report or edit tools to correct the problems. we need to all work on this together and help them out...
