Google’s Broken PlaceFinder
Google’s apparent geographic illiteracy is a screw-up of major magnitude. Advertisers are not getting their money’s worth because their ads are showing up in the wrong geography. People cannot find the places to which they want to navigate, because Google cannot tell them where the location is on the surface of the earth. Communities that rely on Google Maps to help people find and navigate to their city facilities cannot depend on the maps they serve to show the actual location of the city.
