MFM look like still not good using in Penang compare with KL.
road is not accurate. less junction view, incorrect instruction given (different with what it show in maps, map show follow left but direction ask you follow right lane). weird.
hope penang mappers can improve this.



I have been using the MFM maps which did not disappoint me in providing good navigational directions to POI in my business and pleasure visits.

Please advise what GPS model are you using and can you provide examples of the inaccuracies, incorrect instructions etc... . with co-ordinates :tq:


china GPS, atlas4, 128MB and 4GB build in. Papago X5 SE.
i not familiar with Penang roads, somemore forgot to stop down and record the road that got error.
just remember one of the confuse routing is going to Bayan Baru Pos office, near the sunshine square there.
2nd is from sunshine square going to PISA, it ask me use small road (go into the Malay Kampung instead of main road).
3rd wrong routing is from queens bay area want going back to bayan baru, the maps show using left lane but the voice and directions show follow right lane, it make me almost accident yesterday. ha ha


can think Papago R6600 :thumbsup:

Thank you to everybody who make an effort to come today. :thumbsup:

So many small separate serious discussions at various tables after the formal talks.
I assumed only our table has a very 'high quality academically inclined' :nutz: :nutz: discussion.

Thank you again to antyong + mfm party van official members. Also to Ipoh, Penang and Kedah gangs. =D> =D>

Have a safe journey home.

Thanks to Bro Sulphur for arranging such a fantastic place for our GG. Good auditorium with comfortable seats, good air-con, projection & sound system for the presentations. After that, the cafetaria with "small" but not so small (haha) lunch. The cafetaria was really conducive to group discussions, with air-con & so many round tables. All exclusive to our GG. Really wonderful place. Thanks also to the KL team who drove all the way here. I got some valuable information today. A very good GG for me.
Regards,
FrancisTLim.

I felt jelous and deeply sorry for me as i miss this wonderful, cheerfull, confortable and beneficial GG. I hope that I can joint and learn more about polygon mapping and doing some serious pplygon as many polygon mappers are there and i can learn and ask what ia want.

But I mss them all, misas their lesson and miss their valueble answers. Don't know if this opportunity will come agaim to me.

Anyway thanks to sulphur for the perfect place and to all mfms team that came all the way to penang.

Lastly I thrully jelous to Sulphur for his wonderfull mapping of ILPNT (the event place), hope one day I can do the same thing.

Thank you, and sorry....
