How to convert a custom list to a custom map

Google Maps tips & tricks
1

As part of the application process for Connect 2019, applicants are creating a custom list of places with something in common.

Is there any way to export or convert this custom list into a custom map?

If so, how can it be done step by step?

Thanks

Thanks. I knew there was more data somewhere.

Quick question though. Will I be able to export the places in my list and import them into My Map?

Hi Ernest,

So, how to do the reverse? That is convert a map into a list.

I have a number of “interesting” maps which would be great as lists:

  • Rent Controlled Apartment Buildings in certain NYC zip codes

  • VFW’s in Queens, NY

  • Yale CLub reciprocal clubs worldwide

  • …etc…

Alternative would be to use original data to create a list.

You may have already included this in one of your replies, however as it’s not explicitely referenced I thought a specific response would be best.

Thanks!

Hi all,

I’ve got the same question FogCityNative raised, but I still don’t see an answer in this thread.

Is this possible (i.e. taking a Google Saved Locations List and creating a Google MyMap from it)?

Thanks
