As I see it there are 3 options here 1. Do an import, but its not accurate enough for an import - 500 POI's will never be fully vetted. 2. Add a note so that someone can map it either from imagery or a ground survey - 500 notes will get checked by individual mappers. 3. Do nothing, stick the data in a drawer and never use it - 500 pieces of data never get used by anyone To me the only logical choice is #2 when you data is not accurate enough for an import but the data itself is useful and something which is wanted All that is needed is a disclaimer added to the note something to the effect of "This note is based off an inaccurate source. The bicycle repair station is located somewhere within 30 meters of this note. If you can easily identify the station, please map it and close this note. If note, please add a comment saying it needs a ground survey". This doesn't need to be very complicated. Dave
