Re: Incorrect dots and inaccuracies among city profiles
Some unfinished business (or better red tape).
So far the counterarguments were insufficient. Summary:
Vogel and other (precedential) cases prove that this can be done (even more: this is a well established practice on EBT). (argument 1). This is more precise than the alternative /& no damage is done/. (argument 2). All counterarguments to 1 & 2 I saw were based on opinion (opinions are not facts). For #3:

I've seen it. My interpretation is that the talk is about "city profiles" (data structure). I'd be happy if you (or smb. else) manage to prove that this also relates to the "note reports". I was not able to find anything useful so far. And so far I am about 90% happy with the location names I put in.That is not as obvious as it maybe seems. See the quote from Nerzhul that I made in my previous post. It is the same "city" (both places are in Ukanc), it has the same postalcode (4265) and it is in the same country (Slovenia). So one location.

This quote comes to mind: "Yesterday: atoms. Today: quarks. Tomorrow: a world without bureaucrats."...there are on average more than 150 settlements per dot in Slovenia, I'd say chances enough.
It is not 4 km away. It is 5 km away.Just as it would be if someone adds the streetaddress to the cityname, that also shouldn't give separate locations.
If I enter a note that I get in Ljubljana Rudnik (1000) that should give me a coordinate in Ljubljana Center, even though that is 4km away from where I got the note. But it's not a wrong coordinate.

I was also wondering why my notes entered in Taebla say the location is Turvalepa? Afaik Turvalepa is a village in Taebla vald, or..?

Re: Incorrect dots and inaccuracies among city profiles
This is a mistake (I will fix it).
The problem is that one note (the first note of the profile) was entered as 90817 Taeble. This the postalcode of Turvalepa (Taebla vald). Many notes are entered like this in Estonia, not really a problem. But now several users entered notes in Taeble with the correct postalcode (like you) and the database automaticly thinks it's the same profile.
The prevent such problems in the future, I always create a new profile with the correct postalcode.
If you have more Estonian problems (or other countries), just reply in this topic.

Re: Incorrect dots and inaccuracies among city profiles
All notes entered in
Övertorneå 95600 belongs with
Ylitornio 95600. As it is now they show up in
Övertorneå which is a different location (cross-border town).
This hit shows the problem (click the location link for Övertorneå) https://www.eurobilltracker.com/notes/?id=114427795" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Last Saturday I entered 2 notes in Münster (
Germany, 48161). I received these notes in a motorway service station (Raststätte Münsterland-West) (51°56' 40" N, 7°32' 54" E) near the A1-highway.

According to Google maps this motorway station is clearly situated in the southern dot of Münster (and not the northern dot as it is given on my dotmap now).
Is it possible to receive the right dot? Thank You!

Re: Incorrect dots and inaccuracies among city profiles
1114 Budapest doesn't have coordinates yet I think as it doesn't show of my dotmap. It should go in the Southwestern dot of Budapest
