Microsoft Maps should be as precise as possible

Now, Microsoft is finally admitting that there are some flaws involving the maps and promised that they’re being fixed as soon as possible.

Occasional delays when bringing map data from HERE to Bing maps

Loren E. Hillberg, Partner, Group Program Manager on the Bing Maps team, acknowledged that Microsoft encounters an occasional delay when it brings map data from HERE to Bing maps and the Windows Map App experiences. This can sometimes result in some users seeing mapping errors but it looks like Microsoft is aware of this and it’s currently working on a fix to enhance map data and kill such delays.

A hotfix should be ready by summer 2018

Hillberg said that the company is speeding up data processing and an update should be available during the summer and it should make users forget they have ever experienced such delays with the mapping data. Anyway, it’s great that Microsoft decided to address the issue and started working on a fix.
