If there's a POI that is otherwise correct, except the location is slightly off (that is, a Morrisons pointing to the Tesco CarPark), should the adjustment be put through as an Confirm POI or Change Existing POI?

For example, I put the new location taking the satellite front door (or where the google map is not updated, as close to the premises front door as possible), and select Update co-ordinates. Is my action now "Confirm POI" or "Change existing POI"?

it would be a 'change' as you are wanting to change something on the poi's data. however, we recomend that the poi is placed at the road entrance as opposed to the actual shop location itself.

Personally i use relocate to correct position, but as for road versus actual location I think it best to use your own local knowledge, in my case some of my submitals have roads leading to perhaps a car park but not shown on sat map, this paticularly happens with Malls and shopping centres, so i dont think that their is perhaps a hard and fast rule.
