Mapping made easier with the new Google Map Maker

Posted on 02:43 by Unknown
En Français

With 2012 approaching, we're getting a head start on our New Year's resolution to shed some excess weight and improve our overall appearance. You may have seen our ongoing efforts to improve the look, feel, and user experience across many other Google products to date. And with Google Map Maker available in more than 180 countries and regions, it's time for another makeover. Today, we’re revealing a new version of Google Map Maker to help users map the places they know best and make their hometowns sparkle on Google Maps.

Start with a walkthrough of the new Google Map Maker

With Map Maker, you can easily help ensure that the changing world around you is accurately reflected on the map. Add your favorite gift shop, the nearest tree farm, or even the golf course where you once got that hole in one. It’s also easier to mark the best route to Grandma’s house and draw better buildings with courtyards and crisper corners. The options are endless when it comes to mapping the places you know and love. Once approved, your contributions will appear on Google Maps, Google Earth and Google Maps for mobile for all the world to see.


You don’t have to be an expert to start using Google Map Maker. Why not make your New Year’s resolution to improve the map for millions of people? Start here.

La cartographie plus simple avec le nouveau Google Map Maker

À l'approche de 2012, nous commençons à penser aux bonnes résolutions pour l'année à venir - perdre quelques kilos en trop et améliorer notre apparence générale. Vous avez peut-être constaté nos efforts constants pour améliorer l'apparence, le confort et l'expérience utilisateur de nombreux produits Google. Avec Google Map Maker désormais disponible dans plus de 180 payes et régions, il est temps de procéder à un nouveau lifting. Nous dévoilons aujourd'hui une nouvelle version de Google Map Maker, qui aidera les internautes à cartographier les lieux qu'ils connaissent le mieux et à faire briller de mille feux leur ville natale sur Google Maps.

Avec Map Maker, vous pouvez facilement garantir que le monde en perpétuelle mutation qui vous entoure est rendu avec précision sur la carte. Ajoutez vos boutiques de cadeaux préférées, la forêt la plus proche, ou même le terrain de golf où vous avez un jour réussi un trou d'un coup. Il est aussi plus facile de repérer la meilleure route jusqu'à la maison d'un proche et de mieux dessiner les bâtiments avec des cours et des angles plus nets. Les options sont infinies quand il s'agit de cartographier les lieux que vous connaissez et que vous aimez. Une fois approuvées, vos contributions apparaîtront sur Google Maps, Google Earth et Google Maps for mobile, à disposition du monde entier.

Vous n'avez pas besoin d'être un expert pour commencer à exploiter Google Map Maker. Et pourquoi ne mettriez-vous pas dans la liste de vos résolutions de Nouvel An d'améliorer la carte mise à disposition de millions d'internautes ? Commencez ici.
