Missing category

[Omundu]

Hi I am trying to add a missing place but I am not able to find some categories like "Dispensary" and "Bus station". why these categories are not appearing in the list?

There are limited no. Of these categories​, can request on feedback platform mate @Omundu

Hi @Omundu you can't add "bus station" because this POI falls into Google Transit layer; adding these kind of POIs require such public authority to request access to Google Transit program for updating transit layer.

Thanks @LucioV I understand now. And what about Dispensary Is it also the same ?

Hi @Omundu.

You asked about the dispensary... but it depends on the type of dispensary it is.

Do you mean a medical dispensary, or perhaps an apothecary?

What kind would you like to add?

Maybe could fall into the more generic category of Pharmacy.

In categories that are used in the USA, both @DChamandy, and @LucioV are correct.

If it is a place that primarily treats sick people, then it would be a clinic, or medical clinic

If it is a place that primarily sells medical drugs and supplies, then it would be a pharmacy

Maybe the categories you get if you use British English are a bit different, but I have not checked that version.
