Hi Shawn,
Looks like we are as good as it needs to be for the important issues.
The entire neighborhood is getting packages from UPS, Fedex and USPS. I asked both the UPS and Fedex drivers if the data was in their systems and it was. No idea how it got into the UPS Orion system. Perhaps they were able to update systems through the USPS database or perhaps the data I sent to an email address I was given from a staff member at the local UPS depot is what did the trick. No idea, but the data is present in all the systems.
For general routing, Google, of course is 100% correct. Tom Tom/Bing is correct with a few addresses a little off from their location. Garmin took all of my changes and I got an email saying those would appear in a future map update. HERE is showing all of my updates but none yet from the GIS manager. Never made any headway with Apple and I'm assuming the GIS manager never did but I see the roads to the neighborhood are now in the maps, just no addresses so for now, Apple users will need to other sources to map their way to homes in the community.
All our efforts were worthwhile and pushed the timeline up for people in the community to get reliable package delivery and to be able to route friends, family, and vendors to their home by probably 6 months if not more.
Thanks again for all of your help. Very much appreciated. Good luck in school!
All the best,
Michael
