+Insp Gadget Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 I have been using the find an address feature of my Meridian Gold and have noticed that each address is off by about 30 or 40 meters. Anyone have any idea why this would be? Quote Link to comment
bthornhill Posted August 31, 2003 Share Posted August 31, 2003 I'm pretty sure that the GPS just uses an algorithim to give an approximate location on the block versus actually plotting each property. For example, if one intersection starts at 100 Pine Street and the next intersection is 200 Pine Street, then a request for 130 Pine Street will be 30% of the distance between the two intersections.
