How to get incorrect street names changed on MapSource

 
Fri, 10/19/2007 - 1:18pm

I have a main road in my community that is improperly named on MapSource. I have spoken with longtime residents whose families go back generations and they say the road never had the name MapSource gave it. Does anyone know of a way to contact MapSource to recommend they change the name?

Thanks!

Mapsource Map update

Garmin license the maps from Navteq. www.navteq.com
has a Map Reporter for you to submit your request.

Mapsource Map update

Here is a reply from Garman on error I found and web address below to fill out the form at.

We ask our customers that come across addresses
or errors in the mapping to fill out an error report form. This form
then goes to our cartography dept. for them to investigate the
information provided and release the information on the next update. We
come out with updates every 12-15 months usually in late summer. I have
provided you with the direct link to the error report form below.
