Hi Guys, I found this new and interesting option on Google Maps. We can now make helpful decisions regarding how photos might be able to rank on Google Maps. I was Making some contributions earlier on Yesterday and I found this option.

Great @HelloSamsonR
Wonderful news. I haven't seen it yet, so I am expecting an official communication soon. This is something that I really like. It appears automatically in reviewing a place?
I can't wait to see this functionality in my phone.
Thanks for sharing

Thank you @ErmesT. I found it when trying to answer questions of places I visited in the past weeks. The option came when I was answering questions about places. I went to my contributions tab, then answer questions about places visited, then this option came in. It's really a good addition in helping to improve Google Maps.

@FazeelUsmani Yeah it is. I really don't know when it would be available in India or Worlwide. You would just have to wait for an official announcement from the Local Guides Team or still yet stay glued to Google Maps to see if you can catch up with the updates ;).

@HelloSamsonR cool feature.
Just out of curiosity 🤔@HelloSamsonR that photo you posted up in your example
Is it asking about the same place?
The picture on the left shows a beautiful golden monument
The one on the right....im not sure but it looks like a gorilla or ape (no disrespect if it is not and it is of some sacred importance)
And those pictures are indicating the same place of interest?
Thank you

@HelloSamsonR This is good option, I haven't come to it yet, but hope I will. I definitely saw some change when answering questions, but this option didn't come up unfortunately...

Hi @DshottDennis Yes it is the same place. The two pictures are from the same place. The place is an amusement park. No disrespect bro, it is just an artificial man made gorilla used as a tourist attraction in the amusement park :). The two photos are from the same POI. From what I could tell Google Maps was asking me to point out the actual photo between the two that would be more helpful. More helpful in the sense to me here is like a Photograph showing the proper representation of the place.
