The Brazilian Community discusses the Toll tool
A few years ago, when it was time to map toll roads, the Brazilian Community was one of the first to update their map. Now, they felt like it was time to improve the tools Editors use for mapping toll roads and pricing, and had a meeting to discuss it. They brainstormed and reached valuable insights to help Editors use the toll tool and also shared some great suggestions with Staff.
