Question: someone drew a road as shown below. Should I move their drawing to the left to match the actual road? It looks like they did a good job but now the road and lines are mismatched. Thanks!

سلام در اینجا جای دارد به جمله ای از شاعر ایرانی که میفرمايد .هر کسی از ظن خویش شد یار ما.یعنی معنی این باشد که هر کس برای خواسته و تقاضای خودش رو به این برنامه می‌آورد.و اگر نتواند به نفع خود استفاده کند .در نتیجه .خارج میشود.ما به عنوان .یک عضو از اعضاء کوچک این کار بزرگ جهانی .باید بتوانیم با خواسته های مردم همراه شویم و در طی راه به آنهاکمک کنیم تا پی به مواردی که شاید از طرف کشور زندگی آنها یا مسائیل دیگر بصورت مشکل روئیت میشود .تقصیر این برنامه نیست .و سیاست کلی این برنامه مفید بودن برای مردم جهان می‌باشد نه کشور خواصی .ما از مردم هستیم و در خدمت جامعه مردم .دقت کنید .)جامعه مردم(.تشکر @حمید ررئیسب کارشناس طب سنتی

Hi @YerlanB ,

As you were advised in the previous comments at the moment, Local Guides points and badges are not granted for roads drawn on Road Mapper.

Please be informed that I am going to merge your post to the relevant thread where you may review answers of frequently asked questions.

Thank you.

Hi, fellow Road Mappers, and Googlers!

My question again is about deleting (or not) incorrect lines. Should we delete them or this is not our business?

In the example below, there are no roads under those lines.

I’ll delete them but I would like to get your recommendations on this matter.

Thanks,

Yerlan

Thank you for providing this service. Even though I do not live in any of the affected countries I find it very fun and therapeutic to help complete these maps. I have a couple of questions that will hopefully make things even better. Should railroads be mapped? Also, is there way to enable better zooming on surrounding areas? Sometimes when you see certain features, it my be difficult to know whether you are looking at a road or a fence (for example) without the context of following it to neighboring areas.

Many thanks for all of the information given in this thread.

How can I join the road mapper community? I’d love to start using it and help mapping roads where needed.

Should I do something to join or is something that google choose randomly who is joining it?

Many thanks in advance.

When will it be possible to mark footpaths?There are a number of them in my neighbourhood and the Google Maps route planner never suggests them, even if I specify that I am walking.

When I try to ‘Follow’ Road Mapper, I get a “You have exceeded the maximum limit to follow the topics.” message, prompting me to go to my settings, but no explanation as to what to do there - help!

Geçenlerde haritada olmayan bir yol gördüm. google maps yol ekle linki ile eklemek istedim ancak yalnızca küçük bir işaret ekledim. Bu Road Mapper çok güzel olmuş. yolu olduğu gibi çizmek ve eklemek gerçekten güzel olur. sabırsızlıkla bekliyorum. Teşekkürler
