Wrong coordinates of location, how to fix map marker?

Hello

I’m from Kyrgyzstan and we have this problem no one can solve

We have a mountain “peak Semjonova Ťanšanskogo” it is the highest point of Kyrgyz Ala-Too Range (not all the Kyrgyzstan, just this range).

It is 4889m high.

But for some reason it was wrongly positioned about 1km off the actual summit top.

And no one can move the marker to correct position.

There is no “suggest an edit” button for this location.

We tried “Report a data problem - wrong pin location” but it requires street address. Which street? It is a Mountain in the mountains!

Some tried writing a negative 1 star review that it in wrong position to attract attention

But anyway it is still wrongly positioned. Only on google map/google earth. On other maps and resources (wikimapia, openstreetmap, maps.me etc) it has more or less correct position.

correct coordinates of a summit would be: 42.520344, 74.570364

here is the link to google map https://www.google.com/maps/place/Pik+Semionova+Tien-Shanskogo

Can anyone help to move the pin to correct location?

It’s a very famous place and it’s very embarrassing to have it on a wrong position.

May be someone with higher rating or clearance or whatever can do it?

Please?

Hi @VirtualTourKg

Suggesting edits to natural features like mountains will not be accepted. Fixing an address will also not work.

Such data issues are better dealt with in the Maps support forum.

Hit the Community tab at the top and make a post. You need to attach or link to official documentation supporting the change you are proposing. Copyright-free governmental maps are probably the best proof you can attach.

Without such official documentation, you will not be successful.

Cheers
