TomTom Map Share™ (Correcting the map)
With TomTom Map Share, you can correct errors on your map and share those corrections
with other people in the TomTom Map Share community, as well as receiving corrections made
by others.
NOTE
TomTom Map Share is not available in all regions. For more information, go to
tomtom.com/mapshare.
Map corrections
There are two types of map correction:
• Corrections that are immediately shown on the map. These include, changing the traffic flow
of a street, blocking or renaming a street and adding or editing POIs.
This type of change is immediately shown on your own map. You can hide these corrections
at any time in the Map Share preferences menu.
• Corrections that are reported to TomTom but not shown immediately on your map. These
include, missing streets, errors in motorway entrances and exits and missing roundabouts.
This type of correction is investigated by TomTom and once verified, is included in the next
map release. These corrections are therefore not shared with the Map Share community.
Making a map correction
The navigation system is just a support system for the driver. The driver should always pay
attention to the traffic situation to safely make decisions. You may be unable at times to
arrive at your destination due to out-of-date information on a map. You should be especially
careful when selecting an urgent destination such as a hospital or a police station.
