Hi all,
Thanks for voicing your concern. We are aware of this issue and working hard to get it fixed as soon as possible!

Apparently by as soon as possible he means immediately because take a look:
It appears to be fairly thorough but a quick search did prove that at least one reservation is missing (sorry Three Affiliated Tribes, apparently Google doesn't like you).
I am happy that Google returned to the status quo of marking Indian reservations but the names are still missing. What's the point of identifying something if you don't also label it!
If Bing Maps can label Indian Reservations then so can you Google!
to be continued...

ReplyDeleteIt looks like the representation of reservations on Google Maps has changed again... They are certainly not visible on the scale of map embedded in this blog post (although I appreciate they may have been three years ago!)
ReplyDeleteAs it stands, it looks like reservations are delineated by dark grey patches, but these become invisible when you zoom out twelve clicks. More importantly, they are not labelled with text.
