OpenStreetMap is indeed awesome in this area. I wonder why Apple can't just import their fresh data for a few years already.
Bah, these map both cannot escape being politicised. One shows Monte Bianco summit in France, the other at the border.
Maps are political objects by definition: they represents borders which are nothing but political concepts.
not really in this case, it's important to know which state's emergency service to call depending on which side of the real border you are.
Given that both country consider the area to be their, I guess you could call the one you want.
