Is there a "Universal" GPS Administrator

Whenever anyone tries to come to our house using GPS, it send them the the wrong end of our street. We are the first house on one end of the street, but GPS always directs people to the other end. Is there some GPS Admin that "controls" all GPS info that I can contact to correct this situation?

My house is the same. It's 3/4 of a block off on the GPS map. I don't think there is a universal gps admistrator. I think most people use Google Maps (on cell phones), Garmin and TomTom. You can contact them to see if they can change it. I think once it's out there other companies will update their map based on the larger companies.

I submitted a change to Google Maps, and they actually implemented it. Chat Icon

It takes a while to propagate to everyone, and older GPSs may never get updated, so they won't get any changes.
