Google Maps now has a Report a Problem feature

Google is now looking for more inputs from the users of their Google Maps service.

The company has added a new functionality on this service which enable web users to report problems with the maps they are checking out online.

This would let them report outdated and incorrect information present on the popular web service.

Google said in a blog post:

You’ll find this “Report a Problem” link on the bottom right of Google Maps (you can also find it by right-clicking on the map). Has that new highway on-ramp finally opened up? Do we have an outdated name for your local school? Was Main Street converted into a pedestrian-only walkway? Tell us! Once we’ve received your edit or suggestion we’ll confirm it with other users, data sources, or imagery. We hope to resolve each edit within a month. If you submit your email address, we’ll even keep you posted on our progress.

Here is a video that showcases this new functionality:
