Andrew or Ron a Question

Post by CobraAus »

I am working in the Canadian area and have come across the only map art error I have seen so far and was in the original stock graphics as well as Andrews maps just southwest of Vancouver there is an Island that as the bases Coal Harbor and Victoria on it
it has been shown as an detached piece of land with East and West access
But when I got the Satalite image its no such thing (see Pic) Vancouver almost seems landlocked by small islands and at the Eastern end there is no passage as the island is joined to the main land by a large rock shelf
Now the Quest is do I leave it as it is in the Game or show it as attached to the mainland

A Tourist Map

and Google maps (www.map.google.com) shows the Alaska Maritime Highway doing the inshore route from Victoria/Vancouver to Prince Rupert.

While there are many islands it still appears to be a substatial waterway.

That image looks weird as hell. If that were the Phillipines I'd guess a ferry capsized.[X(][;)] Perhaps this is showing something that is present both on land and in the water.

Anyway, never been to the hippy part of my country...yet anyway.[:D]

This is called the "inland passage" and it is not land. Not sure how the image was generated?
