Day 2
We 5 local Guides had the opportunity to address the news channels along with the event as Local Guides sharing our experience to the Media people in the Press Conference .
Our Suggestions taken into account include .
- A mail send to local guides when a new feature is introduced .
- Category filters example: if we add a new bank then the list of all nationalised banks will be dropped down so that uniformity of names and shortcut will be there
- Tagging Multiple location in 360 - When a 360 photo is taken on the Junction , Multiple Business Locations could be viewed so the tagging of Multiple locations will be a good feature .
- Reverse / wrong direction instead of redirecting route silently (at-least a notification is needed)
5)Artificial intelligence on Name to avoid use of Keywords in business names even for claimed business
6)Need a place to showcase the 360 other than map - New features mail
8)Invite a friend to local guide programme
9)Edit features on map and street view - Power saver option - this will enable by adding a feature where in the screen of mobile device will adjust the brightness of the display /off the screen when entered into a long drive with out change / deviation in road
- More Points for 360 photos -at least 10 Points for a 360 Photo
12 ) water mark / Logo for photos uploaded to map .
