Looks suspiciously like vandalism. Whatever edits these fantasy mappers do seem to be where they mix good edits with fantasy mapping. I will have remove the fake roads on Don Pedro Island that cross between the state park and Little Gasparilla. There are no such roads, I have been to the island myself and know that no such road exists.

The alignment of 3 sisters drive edit looks maybe okay, will need to triple check that too. We cannot trust fantasy mappers.

Checked the edits this " Sticky Creature" did and whatever fantasy mapper keeps trolling florida keeps making up more bizarre edits. His alignment correction for 3 Sisters Drive seems okay, but he put all sorts of other things in with his edit changeset/121740113 . I am going to have to fix the addition of roads in Don Pedro Island State Park. There is no road linking Little Gasparilla Island to the state park.

These fantasy mappers are very sneaky and will try to hide vandalism in with legitimate looking edits.

Appears like a legit edit mixed with a fantasy edit. Strange, can not trust TheKittenHuffer

Looks like a fantasy mapper edit created a fake connection across Six Mile Cypress slough between Penzance Blvd and Six Mile Cypress Parkway. Its seems to be a pattern that the "fantasy mappers" leave little errors here and there, but seem to "fix" their big fantasy creations.

Just looking through the edits in the area, lately there have been fantasy mappers throwing up bogus data. Looks like someone made Luckett road so it goes through. According to LCPA and the local plat, as well as aerials, much of this edit was putting down fake features.

Whoever is doing these edits is sneaky. As Grouper said, these "fantasy mappers" seem to put down a lot of fake developments. That is something I noticed, they also map real features in with their fakes so as to appear legitimate.

They then clean up their fake data, and then leave little "easter eggs" of errors throughout the areas they mess with.

It appears the fantasy mapper(s) mark their fake data edits as a random number, and their partial corrections as just fix.

Looks like another fantasy mapper cleaning up his fake edits. He or she seems to be making fake features, keeps them up for several days, and then deletes them. Looking through the edits it appears that the ones tagged as fix are the fantasy mapper restoring things to normal.

Fantasy mappers have been a problem in the area and one should keep an eye out for edits marked with seemingly random numbers.

I have been keeping watch on the SWFL area and have noticed a lot of strange edits in the Naples and Fort Myers area, please be vigilant about edits here.

Double check everything.

Looks like the fantasy mappers struck again, classic hallmark of fantasy mappers around here to add fake features and then delete them later. The Kitten Huffer appears to have restored this area though ... so strange

I checked against the public records, said road does not exist per the collier county plat books. Whatever the fantasy mapper (VisiGround) put here goes into Rookery Bay Reserve.

I checked the street names in this area against public records at the Collier County Property Appraiser, they appear to be correct now.
