“Due to the deterioration of the on-premises environment, problems occurred in the virtual infrastructure on a daily basis, and it took a long time to recover, affecting service. Expanding capacity was also an issue, and it was not flexible to procure servers and network equipment, install them in the data center, and perform various settings. Adding to that, maintenance of the on-premises environment was running out.”
“If we didn’t have Google Earth Engine, the MapBiomas project could not exist. The cost would have been prohibitive. Instead of having to buy and maintain massive infrastructure, we can focus our efforts on conservation and develop data, code, and methodologies that are shareable around the world.”

"We chose to use Google Maps Platform because they have the design features and flexibility we needed to visualize the data in a way that can be easily understood. With layered mapping, we've shown that there's an average of one leak per mile (in Boston) to one leak every 200 miles (in Indianapolis), demonstrating the effectiveness of techniques like using plastic piping instead of steel for pipeline construction. We hope utilities can use this data to prioritize the replacement of gas mains and service lines."

The capabilities of the Street View and Geocoding APIs helped Fleetminder create a unique Web-based dashboard and system that keeps the company on the cutting edge of its industry and makes it stand out in the highly competitive asset-tracking, fleet management market. We have used many different telematics and map providers over the years, and none have gained as much appreciation from my end users as the Google Maps APIs for Work."
"Google Maps makes it easy for our customers to get more out of Salesforce with accurate, approachable visuals. We couldn't have built Geopointe without Google Maps. The ability to easily geocode location data is crucial to our product, and Google does that better than anyone in the world."

"Google Maps helped us build a successful airport shuttle service in seven European countries by making it easy for passengers to book rides, and for us to properly route our vans. Our shuttle service is built for convenience and Google Maps makes sure everything goes smoothly for picking up and dropping off passengers."
"Through GRAS, we've made this information accessible not only to governments and NGOs, but also to businesses, financial institutions and individuals. We provide social indices because companies with international supply chains have a great deal of interest in getting an understanding of what the social conditions are in a producing area or country: there are several countries with problems of forced labor and child labor, and providing that information on the GRAS site, auditors and representatives of companies can see if there are any supply chain social problems in that area."
