Improvement of the online tool for correction reports
Users of our maps and geodata can easily submit correction requests via map.geo.admin.ch or the swisstopo app and send them to swisstopo with just a few clicks. These notifications are then published as points in the webmap viewer. We have now optimized this reporting process and, above all, improved communication with users. Senders of correction requests will now be actively informed by email as soon as the processing status of their report changes.
