How can you submit your own pictures on google?

Do you know why Google earth (and Google maps) do not update satellite pictures of Singapore and Malaysia?

  • In most (even very poor African) countries Google updates pictures two or tree times during a year, but in Malaysia and Singapore they didn't update them during three years. Everything is changed in this area and many blank lands are taged as shopping malls, tourism centers and.... I think many people (like me) have requested Google to update them but there is no answer. Do you know why Google policy is that?

  • Answer:

    the market size.. and whatever info provided is quite good. In developing nations they are trying to update the quality/resolution. Now Singapore got Streetview recently, so this is an update :)

according to google their information is 'no more than three years old and is continually updated as new data becomes available', so you must be due an update anytime now (unless they're lying!)

Internal security. There are also parts of the countries that will provide no coverage.
