Adusting addresses on Bing Maps for a new community
Hello, I recently spent a few weeks getting the streets and addresses updated and added to Google Maps for our new community. There is an online process that I tried to use back in January, but ...
Good timing Shawn 🙂
I received this from our county GIS manager this morning:
"Update on the Google editor…I turned in two newer developments that didn’t show up on Google Maps last Thursday. Got an email Monday that they were under review and then got another email yesterday that they had been approved. Checked Google Maps this morning and they were already showing up. That’s a huge win for me and the county! Working on the “Here” updates now. I will continue to work on ways to improve and appreciate all the hard work and resources you’ve given me."
That's great. He's obviously excited and engaged with the process. He's also coordinating with other country GIS managers so over time, TN should be up to date in at least some of the mapping provider systems very early on in community development.
Clearly, the Google process is pretty efficient to getting bulk data into the system. Hopefully the HERE system proves to be as efficient. Once the process for those two are worked out, maybe he can focus on TomTom. As soon as I can get an UPS delivery, I'm going to talk to the driver and see what the community looks like in their system.
Thanks again for all your help!

That's wonderful news Michael!
Yes, Google maps are getting updates around the clock, though other providers will take time to fully implement it into the maps, then pass it to the companies that license it such as Bing, as well as make it all work offline too.
As well, integrate into the systems the UPS, FedEx.. uses 🙂
have a wonderful day!
