Sources of information

To bring you relevant results, Google Maps for the United States combines information from many sources. Our listings include information from:

  • Our web search results
  • Data submitted directly by local business owners
  • User submitted photographic content
  • Street View imagery
  • Third-party sources (e.g. the Yellow Pages)

In the lower right-hand corner of the map, you can see the source of the base map data for a map (eg. Map Data © 2012 Google). Please note that we aren't currently able to share our full list of U.S. Yellow Pages sources.
