Talk:Sipapu Bridge

Coordinate error
If one opens the bridge coordinates in Google Maps, it is correct.

If one opens the bridge coordinates in Google Earth it takes one to the center of the park, not the bridge itself.

 * Confirmed, but not a Wikipedia problem — This is not a problem with Wikipedia, but is a known problem with Google. Earth/Maps will sometimes take you to the wrong place even when provided with the correct coordinates and syntax. It most often happens in Earth, but will sometimes also occur in Maps. If you'll use the "w/ meta data" link for Google Earth in GeoHack rather than the "Open" link it will (almost?) always take you to the right spot. None of the other major mappers suffers from the problem even if they use Google maps as their source. Google has, as I understand it, been informed but so far has not fixed the problem.
