[QUOTE="pretzel_man, post: 658718, member: 927"] Upstate, Here is how it works (per the corporate guys) When 43 Rugar St. is delivered, the DIAD saves the GPS reading. (The reading it saves will depend on a hierarchy.) If there is a signature with a "valid" GPS reading, it saves that one. If not, it looks for a "valid" reading at stop complete. Then it will look for one at scan. After at least 2 deliveries, a big database starts looking at the "average" delivery location for 43 Rugar St. It throws out outliers and looks to ensure that the readings are within some distance from each other. It now has the expected GPS reading for 43 Rugar and sends that back to the DIAD. When you deliver Rugar, if you are within 250 feet (I think) of the average, it says you are okay. So, here is what can happen... If a driver consistently stop completes 43 Rugar at a different address (say 101 Broad), the DIAD will think that's where Rugar is. If a different driver actually records 43 Rugar at 43 Rugar, the DIAD will then think its at the wrong place (when in reality its at the right place). In essence, consistantly recording an address at the wrong place will make the DIAD think the wrong place is the correct spot. As I said before, the other choice is that on a particular day, you have a bad DIAD. I know that this is hard to explain. P-Man [/QUOTE]
