Benefits of photos on google map

I love sharing and contributing on google map and most my activities are adding new places, editing existing places and adding photos to existing places to google map. I see that my contributions really help my community and the world. Thousands view on photos can be an evidence for that. updated photos of a place are very important and very useful for not only business owner, sellers, buyers, tourists but there are much more beneficiaries using information on google map. Another one small real story about my own experience in a hospital this month. My younger brother had serious work accident and intensive surgery was needed. Because of my work and living 130 KM from the hospital where my younger brother having the surgery I can’t go there to manage all the urgent task, e.g. to find good hospital with good doctor. I can only call him and talk with his friends and do a search on internet about credit of the hospital where he was transferred to. I used google map to brouse to that hospital and I was hopeless at the first time I saw few photo of old outdated buildings, without any review so I was very afraid to receive medical care at that hospital. So I keep on search and contact many of friends and networks but really can not find a good image of that hospital. But because there was not better choice and because my younger brother’s condition got worse and worse we had to decide to choose that hospital. With close support from my older brother and network’s reference the surgery took 3 hours successfully for his most dangerous accident part ( a cap of oxygen pumping machine got crashed and exploded and punched his belly and cut four places of his intestines). Another small operation took place one day later. But even though those operations were successful we still in doubt what was the result and especially the hygiene and care during the operation. We were still thinking to transfer him to the Phnom Penh city or other neighboring countries.

Two days after the surgery I managed to arrive there and when I see many new buildings with modern designs, state of art medical equipment beds and many other improvement much better than the old photos uploaded years ago. I feel much better, trust and hopeful and we decided to stay in that hospital for the process. If I would had seen some review and photos of those updated state of art building and equipment at that time, I would not be panic in making decision in choosing that hospital.

Below is the link to that hospital with more updated photos I uploaded recently:
