Amazing work here! I think the biggest limitation is that much of the Google geospatial and maps APIs/tools aren't compatible to be mixed with other outside platforms. Google's tech sets the bar high for smaller competitors but also leaves tons of room for competing alternatives! https://worldbuilder.substack.com/p/unbundling-google-maps

It's been around 25 days since I created a listing on GMB and my listing is ranking, but for the past 20 days I've been emailing, contacting, and filling out forms to verify my number, but there has been no response yet. Your support team is just making a fool of me. These are the case IDs: 9-1741000036362, 8-4432000037066, and 8-1704000036812. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

When viewing the 3D Amalfi map, worth playing with modifier keys to see all the 3D goodness. e.g. on a Mac, press shift while dragging with the mouse to shift the camera. Drag while holding Control, or Option or Command provides other camera control functions.

I have experimented the 3D API for my web app (flyxc.app) and the result is amazing! Can't wait for the 3D API to get more stable and add even more features! https://youtu.be/Au7hs6oSVGw
