You know what we need ? A Trailmarker-O-meter ! A marker with the trail name on the trail <- Excellent A marker with the trail name on a street <- Good A marker with no trail name on the trail <- Good A marker with no trail name on an open green space area <- Good enough A marker with no trail name on the street <- Not… -
Re: Confirm these markers are not eligable
I'll be glad to pitch in for a clearer view. Please check our stance on the below scenarios: a) A marker with the trail name on the trail <- Excellent (Correct) b) A marker with the trail name on a street <- Good (Correct) c) A marker with no trail name on the trail <- Good (Correct) d) A marker with no trail name on an… -
Re: Confirm these markers are not eligable
So then the original image posted here; Would fall under one of these; c) A marker with no trail name on the trail <- Good (Correct) d) A marker with no trail name on an open green space area <- Good enough (Correct) even though it is not a trail at all, and just a Public Footpath? Just to clarify before they all start… -
Re: Confirm these markers are not eligable
Niantic just rejected my appeal of a named trail marker (full written name, not a colour, numbers, initials or symbol) as "mass-produced, generic". Where does this take the discussion? -
Confirm these markers are not eligable
Unsure as to why the community (part of the community) keeps approving yellow public footpath markers as waypoints, they exist in every single field in England with a public right of way, just because the submitter calls it some made up trail name doesn't make it a trail. Niantic states named trails only, where the marker… -
Re: Confirm these markers are not eligable
I've learnt a lot by reading this thread. I really didn't know there was any difference between a footpath marker and a trail marker. Seems like people are really divided on the subject. I personally think that sometimes there should be other factors taken into account. If a footpath marker is submitted in a rural area… -

Uk trails have trail markers with names / symbols on them and they are in addition to a footpath sign, so in the UK you get both. If theres no trail marker sign then it is highly likely that it is not an official trail and just a… -
Re: Confirm these markers are not eligable
I think the general gist of it is of its's showing a route through fields or a green area, it doesn't have to have a trail name or logo on the marker for it to be accepted. The fact its showing a route taking you off the beaten track is enough for it to be elegible, trail name or not. It's marking the route(s) you can take… -
Re: Confirm these markers are not eligable
I don't think that a common marker that you see in every field can be considered a trail marker, The term trail would indicate it has a name and specific markers to follow, if your logic is true I could follow these generic yellow markers from one field to the next, where is it taking me? This definitely comes under the… -
Re: Confirm these markers are not eligable
What your looking at, is a trail in the woods. On the tree on right side there is, whats called, a bluemarker. The bluemarker tells you where a trail in the woods are. What it really is, is just a brush stroke of blue paint. In Norway, this is common way of showing where trails are. It's a marker, telling where a trail is.…
