Google My Maps

What is Google My Maps?

The Google My Maps service enables users to create and customize their own maps, allowing them to incorporate a variety of geographic data and visualize it in a tailored manner. Through this platform, individuals can generate maps that highlight specific information, such as marked locations, routes, and boundaries. Users can import addresses, place names, or geographic coordinates to plot points of interest, draw paths and shapes, and organize the content into distinct layers. The maps can be further customized by applying stylistic elements like colors, icons, and line widths to the various components. These personalized maps can then be shared and published online, providing a versatile tool for conveying geographically-relevant information in a user-defined format
