5 years of Bing satellite imagery

Pretty much this. Bing imagery is just so useful when it comes to correlating recorded video from my dash cam to the GPX track and to the surroundings. E.g. if I see a “speed limit 70km/h” sign at the third tree after the forest to the right ends, that is extremely easy to locate and map correctly. Without the bing imagery as a background reference, this workflow just would not work.

Funny highway shortcuts with the new routing feature

Look at the location on gMaps. There’s is clearly a turn restriction on the small service road. This is not an issue of routing, this is bad map data.

Excuse me, why doesn't this comment make sense? All I did was pointing out, that you might have a chance to get gps reception near the windows of the entry doors.

no, seriously, congratulations, although you probably had the easy part in this :)

Heh, metallized windows 4tl... However, you might want to check out the windows in the entrance doors. IIRC, they do not have that metal coating.
