Adusting addresses on Bing Maps for a new community
Hello, I recently spent a few weeks getting the streets and addresses updated and added to Google Maps for our new community. There is an online process that I tried to use back in January, but ...
Thanks all. Re: openmap Currently, openmap shows nothing for the community. No roads are drawn and no addresses will show up in search.
I added more information that may help on my TomTom forum post and now that I've investigated further on Bing, I think I see what's happening. Looks like there is a range of addresses associated with the roads and Bing, TomTom, HERE grabs that range from whatever source and lays them out along the road.
Google, for whatever reason, seems to have access to different information as they show some correct addresses (ie, in their correct location) of homes not built yet. Not all the addresses; just a few but they show no erroneous addresses. I had to add all the others.

Hi Michael,
It would be best if you can provide all the address in the area and Bold the ones that are inaccurate, also the postal code plus the coordinates please 🙂
Thank you 🙂
Shawn
PS: It would be better if you can get the City to contact TomTom , Here as well , though Here is no more a supplier for Bing.
- Sounds good. I'm going to try and get a clear copy of the deed book as well as pictures of all the houses in the neighborhood then proceed with making changes on Tom Tom and see how that goes.
I put in a few changes on HERE but those haven't been approved as either. I'll give that another week then re-assess.- HI Michael,
Sounds good, just need you to click on the map where the address should be, then type in the number, postal code, there are tiny icons down where you can attach the photos!
Do you have the list of coordinates, as that is all I need, I believe you have those as you worked with the Google Maps expert.
Here Maps is not like TomTom of how long it takes to update, TomTom does weekly updates, Here does quarterly updates.
You may send appsupport @ here.com a email if you wish to forward the address to them 🙂
That way that more navigation providers will have up to date info no matter if they use Bing or TomTom or Here. - The address I did find on the Google Maps that I sumbited to TomTom has been accepted, so if you provide me with the list, I can get it done for you 🙂
- Great, Thank you! Need to run an errand but will get you those coordinates later today.
