Dear @DeniGu @Julie_A @Kristen_NYC
The map location which i have added below, if you see from satellite view it is showing inside coast of sea. Many roads, and other Shops, schools etc. How came its possible!
could you please check and solve the issue if i am not wrong!
Hi @GolamAgam
Thanks for reporting this.
Please avoid tagging more than one Google Moderator.
It does look strange. Could it be that the area was flooded at the time when the satellite image was taken?
I am not sure so Should we wait for other or updated the satellite image!
Let us see what @ErmesT has to say about this. It could be a misalignment or an area that frequently gets flooded.
Ermes is normally on a computer so he can check the date of the satellite image. That might explain what we see.
I looked at the photos at one of the places. It sure looks like lowland that could be flooded.
@GolamAgam i think those are areas affected by flood ..
The street view which was uploaded on 2022 clearly shows there was small roads, houses and other buildings..
The terrain view clearly shows the actual land area and area which went under the water…
More over , if you check the business in those areas , the last upload images show destroyed buildings … and we should always remember the map doesn’t update satellite view regularly (like every week or every month)
it Might Be , Thanks
Thanks for the tag, @MortenCopenhagen
Hi @GolamAgam , yes, I can definitely confirm that this is a flooded area.
On desktop the best way to check the area is to use Google Earth, as there is now a new feature, launched a few months ago: Historical Images (a post will come soon)
Using that feature you can see the changes in an area.
The actual satellite view is quite recent, dated Feb17, 2025
On 2012 the area was even bigger
If you zoom it back the changer are even more impressive
You can check it by yourself by using this link
So what should we conclude?
IMHO we should conclude that actually the businesses aren’t reachable, @MortenCopenhagen , @GolamAgam . However, as the images aren’t updated constantly, I can’t say if this a seasonal event (Temporary flooded areas) or if there is a constant trend, like in the Po river where the position of the coast is moving constantly forward.
Personally I would suggest to @GolamAgam to raise the issue on the https://support.google.com/maps/community , for them to analyse the data and to take a decision
Thanks both of you I got the point.
