Map errors cause, for example, incorrect display, incorrect information in route guidance and turn instructions.
  
-The maps in Kurviger are based on data from OpenStreetMap (OSM). Errors are e.g. wrong entries in OSM, e.g. for drivability, turn lanes, traffic circles, barriers, road works, allowed speed and more.+The map data in Kurviger and the Kurviger routing data are based on data from OpenStreetMap (OSM). Errors are e.g. wrong entries in OSM, e.g. for drivability, turn lanes, traffic circles, barriers, road works, allowed speed and more. Between the update of the data in OSM and the update of the data in Kurviger for some reasons a certain time passes (for routing data hours or a few days, for map data depending on the map possibly even weeks or months).
  
-Everyone can contribute to the elimination of errors. On the one hand directly in OSM, on the other hand by reporting the map errors in the Kurviger forum.+This can lead to incorrect illustrations of the map and to unusual routing and inappropriate turn instructions. This can be a bit annoying now and then. The data origin at OSM has an advantage: Everyone can contribute to the elimination of errors! On the one hand directly in OSM, on the other hand by reporting the map errors or errors of the route planning or the turn instructions in the Kurviger forum. Within a few days, the updated data in OSM will also be taken into account in the route calculation in Kurviger. So everyone can contribute to better map display and route calculation in Kurviger.
