The Rise Of Google Maps

Google Maps has taken on competitors like MapQuest, Yahoo and Apple. But after a decade of investing, collecting data and billions of images through Street View, Google has over a billion monthly users. It updated tens of thousands of times a day and has mapped more than 220 countries and territories. Here’s a look at how Google came to dominate maps.

    Something I always admired about my father was his ability to navigate the area without a smartphone. He worked an hour away from where we lived and it seemed no matter where I wanted to go, he knew the way. Then you look at me and I use GPS everywhere I go. Even routes I know, just in case they’re delays and/or shorter routes I don’t know about.

    One of the interesting features not mentioned here is how Google allows their subscribers to become local guides in putting in their input and local know-how into the Maps. The use of local guides allows Maps to have not only detailed street views but also a unique perspective into how a street point (i.e. shopping mall, small businesses, tourist attractions) looks like with photos and short video clips of these places.

    The problem with that is that if you give a business a negative review they can make Google remove your review. I have reviewed over a hundred businesses in three states and about 5% are negative and of those more than half are deleted. I don't lie and I don't use inappropriate language nor do I say anything that I know of that is against Google's policies. But it seems that instead of responding, businesses can simply contact Google and tell them to delete a negative review. What's the point of reviewing if you can't tell the truth. Here is an example, a business in Clearwater Florida has a manager that bans mask wearing in his store. He kicked me out and threatened to call the police because I had a mask on and he said only robbers wear masks. That when he pointed to a sign on the door that read "NO MASKS ALLOWED!" So I changed my previous review to one star and included the above information. A month later my review evaporated. So I reposed it and it happened again. Then I looked carefully and noticed other negative reviews had also disappeared. This is true for several businesses in my city and not just my negative reviews disappear. So you cannot trust any review given by local guides which I used to be one but no more. There is no point.

    There are ads, you just don't realize they're ads. Search Maps for a local mom and pop diner, then search for the closest Dennys or IHOP. Chances are the information for the Dennys or IHOP is more filled out and probably ranks higher in search. Someone paid Google for those rankings so you would choose to go to Dennys instead.

    At least Apple maps actually does its job. Google maps takes about 15 mins to even figure out where I am, suggests completely inane routes that take longer for no reason at all, and freezes any time I switch to another app for a moment. There is not a single update in the last 10 years that hasn't made google maps more buggy and more broken.

    Security issues. When you follow Google Maps, Google follows you. If GPS alone tracked the people that use it, people would be outraged, accuse the US military of spying. Google Maps has become nearly as popular without the public or governments really scrutinizing what information gets collected. Yes, this seems late, but the real story is that people freely share their location all the time. Notice this is NOT "how to use Google Maps", its about how widely used it's become in a very short time.

If I watched a video about "the rise of genghis khan" I'd understand that it'd be the backstory behind genghis khan and his empire. I'm sure there are countless relevant examples of this, and if you don't understand my point let me know and I'll easily find one for you.

    I can't believe you didn't even mention real time traffic data off the major highways which was the main reason I started using Google Maps about 10-15 years ago. For the time, it was ingenious how they used everyone's location data to determine direction and speeds to put together that information.

    I remember when I was introduced to Google Maps through the original iPhone and iPhone OS 1.1.3! More specifically, I had a first generation iPod touch as the iPhone wasn't available here at the time and I was a kid who was still learning to use a mobile phone with my Nokia 1112 feature phone. It was cool for me to have a map in the palm of my hand that I could pan around, which was something I couldn't get on my HP iPAQ that was stuck on Windows Mobile 2003 SE. When Apple introduced Apple Maps in iOS 6 and I switched to the official Google Maps app, I had to take some time to get accustomed to navigating it using Google's official UI design instead of Apple's UI. By the time I switched from iOS 7 to Android 4.4, marking the beginning of my use of Android full-time, I was able to seamlessly continue with its preloaded Maps app (preloaded as part of GMS). Today, I use Google Maps not only to get directions, but also get arrival estimates, bus routes, bookmark locations of cool places I want to revisit, as well as use Street View and bookmark locations of old buildings that I use as inspiration for some of my projects.

    I remember one time before Google Maps was a phone app, I used it to navigate from my work location to a small town I never had been before to pick up a friend who was in a movie shoot. It was dense thick fog (visibility was about 20 ft), and it got dark early, and I had to print out each leg of the route on paper. I used the turn by turn directions to reset my trip odometer between every leg of the trip through the thick fog to tell me when I was about to come up to a country road intersection. This went on for an hour. Amazingly, I made the trip without getting lost, and the legs of the map were dead on accurate in terms of the distance. From that day forward, Google Maps became my goto for navigation. The only other map application I maintain on my phone is HERE We Go, as it proved its worth during a severe rainstorm, and some mobile towers went offline along the train line, and there was a real possibility of having to get off the train at a station I've never been at. The HERE app allows you to store the map of an entire region and just operate from the phone's GPS without the need of mobile data. Google Maps did not have that ability at the time. I think HERE We Go is a great hedge for those emergency situations where mobile data become unusable, or even travelling in other countries.

Ironically, I knew we were going the wrong way pretty quickly since Google has the offline basic map even when you have no cell signal. I decided to say nothing though because I love rides.
