"My Maps" is a service run by Google Maps that allows users to create and save custom maps. These maps can be annotated using landmarks, routes, custom shapes, text, and more. This customization allows you to create maps for special purposes; for instance, you might create a suggested walking tour for tourists in your city, or you might create a map to help you catalog the locations of your favorite restaurants. After you make a personalized Google map, you can publish it for all to see or keep it for your own private use. | "My Maps" is a service run by Google Maps that allows users to create and save custom maps.
