You know the little arrow that represents you, and your position?...

where is the exact spot i am in?

Is it the center of that arrow? or the front tip? or the back-end?..

not that it matters a whole lot, but i'm curious.
Basically dead center of the marker what i do is mark the location then click on it its normally within 3 metres, if not i just remove and remark.

Wow, I didn't think of using that as a way to figure it out. Great idea. I seldom actually target my map markers

As a side note, I really have a few thiings with the map that I would love! One would be another zoom in level or two. Wouldn't that be nice. (Think I will make a seperate post about map suggestions.

The trick that I use to find "me" in the arrow is just spinning around a lot to find the middle of the arrow. When fully zoomed, I can get around 5 m accuracy, which isn't bad, but passable.
