Google actually made an entire fake continent called “Australia” in order to catch map thieves. Very interesting

Oh, Finland exists for sure. You see, I went to Finland once. I even petted one of their kangaroos.

I used to be a postman for three years, and during my service there was one particular trap place that I would get post for. Because while number 15 and 17 were still on the square, 16 had been demolished years prior and replaced by a playground. However a lot of maps still featured the address to be next to the entrance of the playground eventhough that was a privately owned garage. This wouldn't have been a problem if it weren't for the dozens of people who either used to live at number 16 but are now long dead or used it as a dummy address to send unwanted mail to. I have had plenty of arguments with my former employer over this, because in his mind Google says number 16 exists and Google cannot possibly be wrong.
I'm a postman too and I find the same fake or wrong addresses even based on on-line maps. There are numbers of buildings in the middle of the streets and such. The real problem is that the number of real buildings increases and number of postmen doesn't.
I'd just slip the letters underneath the garage door.☺
Only three years? Was it only that long because your boss made you go… postal? 😬😬😬
@@BlareWolfgang no, it was because the company I worked for was on the verge of bankruptcy and got bought out by a competitor. Contract negotiations between me and the other company didn't go well and the work environment wasn't too great as well so after two weeks we parted ways.

I had a bit of an obsession with maps for some time when I was a kid, and I noticed a nonexistent "Bates Street" shown on a certain map in a neighborhood not far from where I lived. I assumed as a kid that this was a street that had existed in the past but was no more, but I had actually found a trap street.
Tell jay foreman about it
I worked in this field for years and I can assure you, everybody was stealing from every source they were able to put their hands on.
Since the rise of OS and Google Maps everybody started to copy from there, assuming their maps are the most accurate. Boy, were we wrong! :D
You worked in a field?
Was that because an inaccurate map said that it wasn't a field, but an office building instead?
@@MinifigJez Lol :D :D :D
@@MinifigJez She worked in Argleton.
I know this is a year old comment, but could you specify what you mean by "in this field"? Modern day cartography sounds like an interesting topic!
@@Otek_Nr.3 Sure it is an interesting topic, but OS and Googe maps killed it, more or less :(
And "in this field" (in my case) meant enriching and upgrading urban's maps and addresses DB, so when you type "street X, No 16", to be located precisely there, with a beautifully drawn outline of the building you are searching for.

I work a lot on backroads in northern British Columbia; it's pretty common to find roads on the map that don't exist. Of course, this probably has more to do with the fact that a lot of old forestry roads get decommissioned after use.
Though a funny anecdote, I was driving out to a project and had a new-to-the-job passenger doing the navigating. "So... we hang a left on the 800 Road and that should take us straight to the project," he says. I drive up and down, looking for the 800 Road and finally ask to see the map. He was looking at an elevation line. 800 m asl.
Ha ha, on a car touring holiday in Scotland, my mother tried to work out where we were using a road map combined with the road signs. She once admitted to trying to find a place on the map called stone chippings.
Closer to Jay's neck of the woods, it's a bit of a local sport in my native Lincolnshire to give directions using places that haven't existed for decades. I've had to help many a baffled tourist asking for a pub that was knocked down in the 1950s.
Whoops
@@Zerbey That's a thing where I'm from too. We would use a store that hadn't existed for 30 years as a landmark. Locals all knew it, even those of us who were too young to remember it, but non-locals, the poor things, were so confused.

We had a "Handbook" of our local area, with businesses and such, in the middle was a map. They'd spelt a road Perton, which should of been Purton. I even contacted them about the mistake. Now I understand why they didn't reply to my email. 😅

@CowsRus dude, they need the ads to run their channels, they need to spend their time researching,editing,scripting, and filming the video and it took a really huge amount of your times when it's done only by a couple of people or if Jay considered to work by himself, if he rely on his current job to cover his own cost of living, it's basically a slavery because they have so little time to rest, that's why the ad is so important to him, his videos weren't just about random videos with lousy gags and all that shit, his videos were really informative and it took most of your creativity and passion to do it so i respect them for it
Mee too. I don’t hate his sponsor as much as I hate Skillshare. They are really annoying.

@CowsRus Eh. I think it's pretty clear when the ad is starting. They need ads to keep the channel alive, especially for a channel that does well researched stuff so takes a long time to make each video. And at least they turn it into a pretty funny skit - that takes effort too

I live on a trap street. Google refuses to add it to Google maps.
Back in the 90s a map maker noticed that one of the larger companies was stealing his maps so he set out to prove it. In Syracuse, NY he added Beatosu St. coming off Adams St. between McBride St and Interstate 81. It worked. The big company got caught. In reality where Beatosu St. was supposed to be was a footpath going through the backyard of a townhouse complex.

google maps has one "error" that actually helps me sometimes. There's small village/city/town (who knows) that doesn't exist but when you type it it shows my home. I don't have to type my adress when I want to know how far I have to somewhere. Stupid? Yes. Useless? Obviously. I like it? Indeed

This is one of the funniest eps of Map Men. The intro, snookums, the "don't don't thanks don't", it all got audible laughs out of me 😁
I love how he almost smiled at 2:32 but kept it professional.
The extra "men" at the end of the "map men" song makes me so happy you'll never know ... thank you for another one!
Google maps has a trap street ( a woodsy trail that hasn't been active since the 1800s) behind my house. Occasionally it will send Uber eats drivers into the woods or tell me try and drive through a dead end.
2:40 - loving the Lemmings music 😊
