When adding a new place by setting a placemarker on map, then tapping "Add New Place" button, the app will not actually create a new place on the exact coordinates you tapped on. Instead, it rounds up\down the GPS decimals to the nearest thousandths. This causes the placemarker to be placed on an area other than what the user intended.
For example, if you had tapped on 34.4706, -107.7073, and clicked the button "Add New Place", the app will change the coordinates to 34.471,-107.707.
This has resulted in numerous places being created where users did not intend. For example, I have seen places where the marker is right in the middle of a lake, because the user tried to create new place by the shoreline. The placemarker gets set anywhere from a few feet away, to a 1,000 feet away. It's not too bad of a problem when creating places for larger sites such as a campground, but become a big problem when users are pinpointing small, specific campsites along narrow forest roads.
