I'm not satisfied with OpenStreetMap reliability

very often when I see a waymark on Waymarking.com I don't see a map

is it new feature of Waymarking.com? :-(

Yeah, that could definitely be called a "Feature" of Waymarking.com. I first noticed the same thing a few days ago. As of yesterday the maps were still flaky, but I discovered that by zooming in and out I could (usually) bring them to life. Most of the time, though, they appeared as usual.

 

Probably a transient that will magically disappear sometime in the far distant future. :D

So far, I am not loving the new map. My waymark locations are always shown well off, leading me to question my coordinates and spend a lot of time on what were accurate coordinates grrrrrr

 

Well... ... now I'm going to have to pay stricter attention to that crappy map. I generally check to see if it lands in the proper town and the proper street, but seldom zoom in and check it closely. On the rare occasions that I've actually checked the accuracy, the map seemed to be as accurate as one would expect. No grrrrrr here... ... YET :)

 

EDIT: Just checked a couple at random - they were spot on. When you find one that is "off" do you compare it to Google or some other map? I know that there are areas where there can be quite a local divergence from reality, but it appears the same on pretty much all maps, as their data comes from the same pool.
