Yes, I'm looking at photos in North Vancouver B.C. I am finding a few photos either not placed correctly by Google OR the user themselves. I'm fairly positive there isn't a 4 lane highway in the middle of a rainforest where there are no current roads. I'm also positive there is no parking lot on the side of a 70 degree cliff with no road access. I think Google needs more rules or guidelines or questions for users that post photos. Most of the photos are accurate because I can verify them as being accurate. But I certainly don't want to sit here for days sending suggestions to authors that they correct their mistake, hoping that one day I'll get an answer or correction. You need to have a questionaire within the photo upload section and then VERIFY what's in the photo. PLEASE.

Photo locations are the responsibility of the photo owner, and Google is not the owner of the photos.

Now that you have a Panoramio account, you are free to offer corrections (see the "Misplaced? Suggest new location" link to the right of the photo) and/or comments to incorrectly mapped photos suggesting they be corrected.  There is nothing anybody here can do to help, at least not without specific information about specific photos (and then, all we can do as users is make the same suggestions you can).
