Hi, this is a series of questions for the Apple developers, and also for anyone that would like to speculate. How are they able to get trees marked on the in-app map? And how come they are fairly but not completely accurately marked?
Trees on the in-app map?
Hi, this is a series of questions for the Apple developers, and also for anyone that would like to speculate. How are they able to get trees marked on the in-app map?
There are many GIS datasets that include trees.
And how come they are fairly but not completely accurately marked?
That one's more difficult. Everyone loves a great dataset. You can even download open source one for free. But nobody likes to maintain any of these datasets. So they get stale really fast.
Pretty much every company, government agency, and institution vastly underestimates the costs of maintenance.
