How get iPhone’s map not to change GPS coordinates to nearest road?


Question by mlevy79: How get iPhone’s map not to change GPS coordinates to nearest road?
I need to find locations in forests based on specific GPS coordinates. If the location is far from a road, the iPhone map works great. But if the coordinates put the location near a road, the iPhone’s map assumes I actually want the location of the road, so it puts the marker down on the nearest road, and the actual location seems to be lost. Surely I can make it stop doing this, right?
