Thanks to the 80/20 rule, we have them. Google is still unmatched for edge cases in maps and search, but something else works 80% of the time, and Google is spending 80% of the effort for that last 20%.
- ooOOoo 12y agoIsn't it the opposite? Google maps works 80% of the time, but for the 20% remaining, you need to look at more specialized maps. For example look at https://www.google.com/maps?q=lamma+island https://www.google.com/maps?q=lamma+island : almost nothing, just of few paths. Now look at http://www.map.gov.hk/ http://www.map.gov.hk/ : all paths and houses in Lamma are precisely described!
