parks are green

Anyone know how to make a park show up as green on the map?  I've got a list of 10 in San Francisco that are the wrong color.

Re: parks are green

@PaulD hi 

Thanks for your information ..

I have seen a park like normal colour, which was in wrong categorized.

But all  parks  with right category otherwise similar category of park  placed on maps its show Green Color mark . like this 

So if we see any park with wrong color, we should understand that , it has any wrong information ...( i think )

Re: parks are green

@PaulD i See all are right with green color mark ..

no any park with red color ....

But Some  of these is ...

01 Alemany Farm which is a farm .

02 Douglass Playground which is a playground 

03. Bernal Heights Recreation Center which is a recreation center 

So these place show normal color of places, because these r not any park ....

Do u mean these are park .....  if u r right u can change these category to PARK

But its seem these are correct places with category ....

Re: parks are green

Sure, these are not all labeled as parks.  But not everything that is green right now is a park.  Examples:

 

https://goo.gl/maps/VCJvvD8f5z22 and https://goo.gl/maps/NCCMncepRR82 .   These are "recreation centers"

Here is a "playground" that is green:  https://goo.gl/maps/RQJ3yNBXQiF2.

And here is a "garden":  https://goo.gl/maps/jz5752FenpS2

This is a "wlidlife refuge":  https://goo.gl/maps/tUaxUBzc7Rv

 

Also, Alemany Farm is not a typical farm... it's more of a community garden managed by San Francisco's Parks department:   http://sfrecpark.org/park-improvements/urban-agriculture-program-citywide/community-gardens-program/...

 

Definitely confusing though... I'm not sure how Google decides what is green and what is not.

These have Park as a category, it's just that you can't see that in Maps but you can in MapMaker

I see.   So MapMakers almost done. ... next month it's over, right?  What process should we use going forward to rectify these places?

Re: parks are green

In MapMaker, I'm seeing several of these containing either a first or second category of "Park", but they still don't show up as green... 😕
