Ho @NJRP , this sounds like a quite old news. Immersive view in Amsterdam, Dublin, Florence and Venice was rolled out on June 2023, as you can read in Google Maps updates: New cities for Immersive View and more features
So I don’t know from where you copied text and images for this post.
However, to avoid to have your post removed for plagiarism it would be great to provide the source of information and images, and to replace the text with your own words.

Thank you

Hi @ErmesT ,

Thank you for pointing that out and for bringing this to my attention. I appreciate your feedback and the reminder about ensuring proper attribution and originality in posts.

You’re absolutely right that the Immersive View update was rolled out in June 2023, and I may have missed mentioning the exact source of the information. However, I’ve personally observed a lack of awareness about this feature within our community, which inspired me to share this update once again.

Regarding the images, they were taken as screenshots directly from my own profile, as visible in the screenshots shared. My intention was solely to spread awareness about this amazing feature and its benefits. I’ll ensure the post includes proper citations and will rephrase the content in my own words to align with community guidelines and maintain transparency.

Thank you for bringing this up, and I value your constructive feedback. I’ll strive to be more diligent moving forward.

I agree about the lack of awareness of many topics, @NJRP , however this should be done in a proper way.
You are welcome to share it with your own words, providing sources of the information for who wants ro read the complete news, exactly like I did it in my reply.

A screenshot doesn’t change the ownership of the original image, and an attribution of the sources in this case is not an option, it’s a “must”.

Regarding the “lack of awareness”, I would like to suggest you to read the point 4 of The 5 core values of Connect.
The article is from 2018, but it is valid and current even today, for everything that concerns our way of contributing in the Community

Road Mapper is still limited to select users, when I login of the page that you mentioned I get communicate:

“Road Mapper is currently restricted. If you think you should have access, make sure you’re using the right account.”

This is the reason why most people are not interested in this project.

Secondly, in the new version of Local Guides Connect I do not see any of the Road Mapper content that was available before the changes.

Good to know this NJRP. I’ve seen many LGs seeking to be enrolled and waiting for the next opportunity.

@new.user did you ever fill out the link for expression of interest? If so, you’d be contacted if new slots are now available.
