Hi @Rdsingh ,

you can add any type of POI by right clicking on Maps Desktop (web browser) or holding the tap on the mobile Maps app on the exact position where you want to add the place.

The menu shows two entries: Add missing places, Add your activity. You can choose the one which fits better to what you are trying to add and fill all the place information in the next dialog, adjusting also the exact location if necessary.

Note that you cannot modify any base map information such as: City, street names and so on as those data are handled only by Google. However if you notice some of those information which are wrong you can report that in this way as described above but using the menu entry Report a problem with the data.

In both cases your edit will be evaluated and approved / not approved based on the circumstances.

Hi @Rdsingh

as indicated by @LuigiZ : Towns, roads and squares are elements of the Map Layer. Local Guides cannot edit that layer. Only Google Maps team can.

What we can do, for helping the team, is to report an error on Google Maps, through the “send a feedback” that you will find scrolling down your menu on Google Maps.

For more details about the reporting function you can read: Report an error on the map

In addition, I suggest you to check your profile as you have several duplicate photos (probably uploaded by mistake). Please read What photos should I share on Google Maps? . Here below an excerpt:

Do not upload duplicate photos. Sharing the same photo more than once on one location or across multiple locations is a violation of our rules and policies and may result in your removal from the program

Do you think you may have shared photos on Google Maps that go against our guidelines, rules, and policies? Go through your photo contributions, remove any photos and videos that may be considered irrelevant or spam, and help others easily find useful information.
