ASK Maps for a Video Walk Adventure in Pune1600×800 528 KB

:red_question_mark: Heading for a VideoWalk?
:red_question_mark: Chasing the coveted Master Director Badge on Maps?

:mushroom: What if your next adventure could begin with a single question?

:globe_showing_asia_australia: Google Maps has evolved beyond navigation with the introduction of ASK Maps, a feature that helps users discover places through natural conversations.

:crystal_ball: Instead of searching with keywords, you can ask Maps for ideas, recommendations, and nearby experiences.

:handshake: To explore this exciting feature in a real-world setting, local guides in Pune are hosting a ASK Maps VideoWalk Meetup in Pune.

:sparkle: The concept is simple:

:one: Participants gather at a common meeting point.
:two: Together, we let ASK Maps decide where local guides go for a videowalk next.

:blossom: Whether it leads us to a peaceful garden, a fascinating museum, a hidden tea shop, or an unexpected local gem, the journey becomes part of the experience.

:round_pushpin: Meeting Point: J M Corner
:triangular_flag: Landmark: The entrance of JM Corner Food Joint.
:date: Date: Sunday, 9 August 2026
:alarm_clock: Time - InPerson: 4:00 PM
:mobile_phone: Time - Virtual: 4:30 PM

:notebook_with_decorative_cover: Google Maps Activites:
• Meet and introductions.
• Discover ASK Maps.
• Let ASK Maps choose a destination.
• Explore the selected place and do videography.
• Share experiences.
• Group photo and wrap-up.

This meetup is designed for explorers, map enthusiasts, photographers, Local Guides, and anyone curious about how AI-powered discovery can change the way we experience our cities using Google Maps.

@TusharSuradkar Masyaa Allah saya merasa tersanjung dan sejujurnya sebuah kehormatan seorang Titik di harapkan dan di tunggu kehadirannya di sana. Namun akankah saya bertandang ke sanakah? Kita berdoa saja ya Bapak, semoga Allah izinkan saya untuk dapat berkumpul bersama-sama dengan temen-teman dari para tokoh 2 penggerak forum ini dan pencetus ide untuk memudahkan pengguna maps ke depannya nanti. Semoga sekala yang sudha di upayakan mendapatkan pahala yang berlimpah sudah memudahkan manusia di bumi . Salam hormat :saluting_face: dna tetap semangat untuk karya yang lebih keren lagi .

I am sure you will enjoy interacting with local guides during the online meetup.

Yes, the rainy season has set in and brings with it stomach issues - I too suffered a lot recently :pill:

The best is to be careful with drinking water. Hope you recover well :handshake:

This is such a unique and exciting initiative, @TusharSuradkar! Appreciate you for hosting this. Using ASK Maps to decide the VideoWalk destination sounds like a super creative way to explore Pune.

Since I am based in Mumbai, I won’t be able to join in person, but I will definitely join virtually to support and experience this event! Wishing you and all the participants a massive success. Looking forward to it
