Cell with waypoint not showing up on any game

Hi,

  • Description of the issue: In the cell there is an approved POI, which, although meeting the proximity requirements with respect to other POIs in the area, does not appear in any of the Niantic games, such as Pokemon Go or Ingress. Tried to request again, but the problem is that the evaluation result is like a duplicate since it currently already exists in the wayfarer database, although it does not appear visually in the games.

If the POI could be reviewed to verify why it is not showing as such

Name of the POI: Cancha de la Cinca
Location: 41.436272,2.192272

  • Date first (or most recently) experienced

12/28/2024

  • Device type, model, and operating system

Google Pixel 8 Pro, Android 15

  • Game & Game Version (if applicable)

Ingress 2.157.2-39e89489

It seems there are at least 4 wayspots in that same cell, 5 with your nomination (red pin), so it won’t show in Ingress or Pokemon Go. Are any of the others in Pogo?

lt does already exist but not where you pinned it.

The marker is the coordinates you gave. But the red circle is where it is, already in the database.

It doesn’t appear in Ingress as it’s within 20m of an existing Portal and doesn’t appear in Pokémon GO as there’s already a PokéStop in that cell.

One of those. No idea which.

I’ve also moved this to General Discussion as it isn’t a bug, it’s working as intended

Hi @PkmnTrainerJ , and thanks for the reply.

Ok for Pokemon Go rules, but on Ingress not is this case.

The coordinates of the poi are correct, because i copied them from lightship from the existing entry on the database.

If you see your capture from iitc with this coordinates, you can see clearly that any of the other pois are faraway from the limit of 20 meters market with the black circles. And in this case the poi should appear in Ingress but not is this case.

On the other hand I try to found more info from this poi and i have
resolution there of in duplicate on date 2023-04-21, which means that the database entry for this poi is well before that date, and some of the other portals are later.

I think that the acceptance of that poi must have coincided with one of the moments of portal problems in limbo and it never appeared and has remained hidden and remained that way.

Since I can’t find any other reason why Ingres does not appear as a portal

I suspect this was a Courts of the World import, which would keep it from showing up in Ingress.

ohhh bingo, it is true that it signs part of the courts of the world database, so I suppose at the time it would be imported into Wayfarer and it remains there, but not visible to ingress for example, this same applies to all those imported from courts of the world then?

It’s hard to remember back that far since I wasn’t eligible for WF in ING back then. But, yes, that is what I recall. Courts of the World imports showed up in PGO but not ING. Some people tried to add photos in the hopes that would force them to sync into ING but I don’t think that worked.

Well yes, I think you are right, I have reviewed another case that is also in the area, another basketball court and is also part of the courth of the world database, so it is confirmed that that is the reason, a shame since it blocks interesting posts in Ingress, but being clear about it it’s not a problem.

Thanks for the info.

Can always raise it with the Ingress team via their app.

Well, it would be interesting if you could raise the issue, since I understand that there will be quite a few sports fields that meet the acceptability criteria and that would also be good spots that are blocked for that reason.

Trust me, the Ingress team is aware
