Upload your waypoints here for version 1.10 part 2
Corrected Waypoints, Submitted Waypoint for Delete in appropriate thread.
Please re-check your uploaded waypoints for duplicates. There's also 1 waypoint that overlaps/is almost on top of another existing POI, please move so there is enough space between them. Also, when you upload correction waypoints, please follow what is stated in the standards, that i'll copy/paste again: What to put in the comment field
a. Description of waypoint if it is an uncommon one (unfamiliar to most of us, no appropriate symbol, etc.) b. The word "correct" if a correction of existing waypoint in demo map. To be uploaded in the waypoints thread
c. The word "wrong" if a deletion of existing points in demo map. To be uploaded in the waypoints corrections thread
... and for the 3rd time, please combine your waypoints into 1 upload file if possible, and avoid making succeeding upload posts especially if your upload contains only 1 or a few waypoints... TIA
Establishments inside the mall. Will add some more in the future
J. What about waypoints inside a building or mall? How do we position them?
For waypoints inside malls or multiple level buildings, the preferred positioning of waypoints is to spread them throughout the building. In this case, the exact location of the waypoint is not much important as long as they are within the bounds of the building. What is important is to put the proper address of the waypoint, i.e. Pizza Hut@2nd Level, SM Sucat. Then make sure that SM Sucat's waypoint location is accurate and preferably with the complete address. In essence, if we want to find Pizza Hut using our gps, we will be given a list of all Pizza Huts near our location including that one located in SM Sucat. And if we decide to eat at Pizza Hut in SM Sucat, then we look for the waypoint of SM Sucat. In short, we look for the building where the waypoint is located and route our gps to go to that building. Anyway, it will be impossible to route directly to a waypoint inside a building, so the best thing to do is search the building's waypoint itself.
And please refrain from positioning waypoints inside a mall on top of each other. Always try to spread them out.
