Members of the public often turn to GPS World and Geospatial Solutions for help when their personal device gives them incorrect mapping information.

GPS.gov has set up a page that points users to the correct place to report problems, by walking them through a series of steps.

As our readers know, the problem isn’t with the satellites, but in the mapping software used by the devices and apps. Links are provided to mapping companies Google, Waze, TomTom, HERE, OpenStreetMap, Garmin and Apple.
