To start creating a new map, click on the "My Maps" button in the top right corner of the Google My Maps page and then select "New Map".

Once you've added your data, click on the "Open" button to view it on the map.
Customizing Your Map
After creating your initial map, you have several options for customizing it. You can add labels and markers, change the map's appearance, and even import additional data like polygons or images. The possibilities are endless! To access these customization options, click on the "Settings" icon (represented by three dots) next to your map title. From here, you can adjust various settings such as colors, fonts, and more.
Google My Maps also allows you to share your maps with others in real-time. Simply click on the "Share" button at the bottom of the map and enter a recipient's email address. You can then send them a link to view their own copy of your map.
Exporting Your Map
Once you're happy with your map, it's time to share or export it. Google My Maps allows you to download maps in various formats like PNG, JPEG, and PDF. You can also embed your map on other websites or use it as a widget on your own website.
