[talk-ph] GPS-Trusting Tourists Rescued From Australian Forest

[maning sambale]

That's why eventhough I (we) collected the data, I still don't trust
my own GPS. :)

Seriously though, the article provides very good insights on what we
should add in the map other than roads.
- access restrictions
- gates and other barriers
- natural features like cliffs and mountain peaks
-  isolated community centers (purok, sitios)
- etc.

PS.  I just love roadguide.ph user's mantra.
"The map is simply a guide."
