Google wants you to map missing roads via Road Mapper globally

Google on Tuesday said it will open access to more contributors to participate in its Road Mapper feature to add missing roads to Google Maps globally.

“Their contributions have made a real difference in people’s lives worldwide. We’re excited to announce that we’re opening access to more contributors so that we can continue to improve our maps,” the tech giant said in a statement.
