Re: Hiking trails/trailmarkers - whats eligeble?
That trail marker is generic. But if you read the AMA it does not matter because you nominate the trail not the trail marker. The trail marker is just the place holder which clearly represents the trail. The trail is the wqyspot and is clearly unique. -
Re: Hiking trails/trailmarkers - whats eligeble?
I do not geht why only one trail marker for a trail should be accepted. The trail markers I know show the direction at a junction. The next trail marker ia at the next junction. Why should not both be eliglbe? The one important thing is that the marker clearly represents a trail. This means that there needs to be a name, a… -
Hiking trails/trailmarkers - whats eligeble?
I heared a lot of different opinions about this topic. I am still unsure whats exactly eligeble and what should get rejected. Here are my examples: 1 A marker for an alternative route 2 A post with a name of a trail and an arrow 3 A simple sign saying "dog cemetery" 4 A Marker of a hiking trail 5 a simple post with two… -

@NianticCasey-ING This type of trail marker appears several times along the biking trail. -
Re: Hiking trails/trailmarkers - whats eligeble?
From the reviewing screen regarding "Visually Unique". "Visually Unique - A visually unique nomination should not be something that is common in the area."

Re: Hiking trails/trailmarkers - whats eligeble?
Then the question arises: should the second trail marker be markes as a duplicate? If a second trail marker is nominated on the same trail, following this logic, then they both mark the same POI... which is reason to accept the first marker, but reject all other markers on the same trail. No? -

@NianticAaron @NIACHAOSMONKEY-ING@NianticAndres @NianticCasey-ING @NianticEG Could you, please, give clarification for the trail marker situation? Edit: no idea how that niachaosmonkey keeps appearing there. -
Re: Hiking trails/trailmarkers - whats eligeble?
As far as I'm concerned, each marker is acceptable, every trail has multiple points you can join, so you can't say the start and the end is the only acceptable ones as people will start and end at completely different points, not to mention several walking and hiking trails go through the middle of nowhere, so every trail… -
Re: Hiking trails/trailmarkers - whats eligeble?
But if both trail markers are more than 500 meters apart no one will notice. You could even argue that every trail marker which are at Crossroads should be eliglbe because they Help the cyclist or the hiker to stay on the trail. -
Re: Hiking trails/trailmarkers - whats eligeble?
Here where I live most trails do not have something like a trailhead. If you nominate every trail marker you basically can follow the route just by the niantic waspot database. That would be a huge thing. I think the AMA is clear. Trail marker are good location when nominating a trail. Where I live, they are the only…
