Re: Incorrect dots and inaccuracies among city profiles
There's a new gap in the Danish part of my dotmap. My Randers dot disappeared. Don't know when this happened.

Re: Incorrect dots and inaccuracies among city profiles
Hi, I have a questions about a note that I entered in 55049 Marina di Torre del Lago Puccini.
1) It's been assigned to Torre del Lago Puccini , which I guess is fine, but other cities have their marinas as a separate city profiles, for example Marina di Massa and Massa. So which is correct?
2) I have seen users having a dot here and I am not hiding that I went here because of the dot (and even if I don't get one, the beach was awesome, so no regrets here
), so I guess my question is, if I wanted to get a dot here, what was I supposed to have done? Track notes in Lecci or Quartiere Lagomare although they share the same post code 55049 with Viareggio and Torre del Lago Puccini?
Thanks.

Re: Incorrect dots and inaccuracies among city profiles
Oh good, that kinda answers both of my questions, that there are actually more Marinas with separate city profiles so it might score me the dot and also that I overlooked on the grid that there is more land south

The three levels of italian localities is currently organized in the following way:petox wrote: ↑Tue Jun 23, 2026 3:46 pm Hi, I have a questions about a note that I entered in 55049 Marina di Torre del Lago Puccini.

1) Regions
2) Provinces
3) Comuni and fractions of comuni
In your case the Region is Toscana, the Province is Lucca, the Comune is Viareggio. Torre del Lago Puccini is a fraction of the comune of Viareggio so is eligible to have a separate profile in EBT.
Marina di Torre del Lago Puccini is a fraction of a fraction of a comune.
Usually fractions of fractions have not its own profile but are merged with the first level fraction's one.
Marina di Pisa and Marina di Massa are first level fractions of their Comune.
Hope of having clarified.

Re: Incorrect dots and inaccuracies among city profiles
Thanks for explaining that -flop-, I only have one question - how to tell which is which? I mean which one is first and which lower level fraction of a comune. Would the qualifier for having an own city profile be an existence of a street sign of a city? Well two questions

Re: Incorrect dots and inaccuracies among city profiles
No, it wouldn't.
Unfortunately, while the Comune is a well-defined admninistrative entity with statal recogniton and very precise borders, fractions are little more than traditional names for certain areas inside a Comune.
Fractions have not borders defined "by law", sometimes they have road signs sometimes they have not, some of them are mentioned in the city statute some are not and some cities statute do not mention fractions at all (even if they have some).
Some fractions are very similar to large cities (Mestre in Venice or Ostia in Rome), some others have no inhabitants and in some cases even no buildings.
At the end of the day it's not possible to define an objective rule.

Re: Incorrect dots and inaccuracies among city profiles
The location for Borlänge
is to far west and not in the city perimiter, resulting in the wrong dot being filled.
https://en.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=256645425
Current location is /map/notereport.php?area=europe;lat=:60.5114;long=:15.3199
https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=19/6 ... /15.319900
Openstreetmap Nominatim gives location https://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=18/6 ... /15.422519 which is better IMHO.
