Search helps you move quickly on the map, especially when planning across multiple cities or regions.

Workflow

  2. Pan and zoom to confirm the exact spot
  3. Create a marker with a meaningful name

Tip

If a place name is ambiguous, add context in the marker name (city, neighborhood, or trail).
