When I am trying to move to a point where I do not know how to do it or when trying to find information about a business or point of interest, the first thing I do is to use google maps to help me. But sometimes the information is insufficient or has not been updated, which can cause some discomfort. This is what I’m trying to prevent for other users of google maps, for areas I know very well.
City of Dreams of Mediterranean:
During the last year, the first integrated casino resort of Cyprus, started to build. That resort is going to be the biggest of its kind to the whole Europe and I am very excited about that, because it is very close to my house. But when I was looking at the google maps, I was not able to find any up to date aerial photo of the area. Due to that, during one of my flight above that area, I took a picture with a perfect view of the plot, reaching more than 66000 views at the maps, made me really happy.
Laneia Village, Cyprus:
One of my first changes on google maps when I first started, was my village in Cyprus. A small village in mountainous Cyprus, that was very poor of information on google maps. I had added new roads, pathways, one-way roads, and parking areas. I had listed the 2 restaurants of the village that offer delicious food. I listed all the churches, chapels and museums, upgrading the cultural image of my village. All this information I provided for the google maps community, made it incredibly easy to quickly access and find information from foreign visitors and tourists.
From my first post on google maps until today, my goal is to continually update and upgrade the maps with any transport changes at my community. At the same time, my constant effort is to add information of any changes about areas of common interest, both from my community and from the countries I visit regularly.
