A lot of points of interest created on google maps appears with wrong categories. Sometimes a Church is classified as Market probably because of proximity to a Market or outright error, while some are created without category. In other situations, generic categories are used like “corporate office”, “place of worship”, “church”, “school” etc. No doubt using a specific category will grant a user of google map a better experience. Giving St Peter’s Anglican Church the category of place of worship will be wild, because Mosque, Hindu Temple, Shrines, Synagogues are all places of worship, tagging it a church sound okay but not really specific because “Anglican church” exists as a category to best describe it. This meet up will discuss how to use appropriate category for excellent editing. I will do a presentation and share my experience editing Schools, LGAs, Churches and other POIs previously given generic classification. Fun Game: Select Local Guides will be required to a song that keeps them going in challenging times like the covid era.
