Disappearing note on my map ?

Post by Yannn »

Hi !

Usually, when I check my note map, the reddest dot shows 314 notes (that's a dot in eastern France where I used to live for a while).
But now, it shows only 313 notes ! How can the reddest dot show a decrease in the number of notes ?

Unless all 313 notes have been entered with identical place name and identical postal code the most likely explanation is that the coordinates for one of the entries have slightly changed so that this note no longer counts towards this dot. This can happen for various reasons including, among others, merging or splitting of city profiles, the addition of new locations in the same profile with marginally different data if a mean is calculated, etc.
It would be very difficult to trace such an event, except if there are only very few locations on your side that could have triggered the effect.

I think your explanation is probably the good one, Gauss, as I didn't enter all the notes in the same place in that dot.
Thanks.
