Creating a Custom Map on Google My Maps

Have you ever wanted to create a custom map that highlights specific locations or shows your current location? Look no further than Google My Maps, a powerful tool that allows users to easily visualize and share maps.

To get started, simply open the Google My Maps website ([https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1IhY9c-SoCjRBZM5_t0Wxne4LLfzdf-dT](https://www.google.com/maps/d/viewer?mid=1IhY9c-SoCjRBZM5_t0Wxne4LLfzdf-dT)) in your web browser. Once you're logged in, click on the "Create a map" button and choose a location from your current location or select a different one.

Once you've added your location, you can customize the map to suit your needs by adding markers, labels, and other elements. You can also use the various tools and filters available on the map, such as zooming in and out, panning, and searching for specific locations.

To make it even more engaging, you can add a custom image or icon to your map using Google My Maps' built-in editor. Simply click on the "Customize" button at the bottom of the map and select "Add an image." Upload your image and adjust its size and position as needed.

• Consider adding a legend or key to explain any custom elements you've added to the map.
• Don't be afraid to experiment with different layouts and designs until you find one that works for you.
