Mapping the world to the minute is usa adult movies | Adult Movies Onlinea task.
And sure, Google Maps can mess up from time to time. But tourists in Australia looking for the country's iconic Blue Mountains have been regularly led astray by the platform. Looking for sweeping Australian bush panoramas, they've instead been landing in a small, quiet cul-de-sac in a suburb called Dargan in New South Wales.

It's 30 minutes away from the desired landing spot of Katoomba, where many of the Blue Mountains' tourist attractions, like the Three Sisters, are.

BLUE MOUNTAINS is not here
(Google Maps is wrong)
You need to go to
KATOOMBA
or BLACKHEATH
Google corrected the error after Fairfax alerted it to the incorrectly placed pin. The Blue Mountains have now been put back where they actually are, and searches for "Blue Mountains" will now be directed to the Blue Mountains National Park.
"The various types of data found in Google Maps come from a wide range of sources, including third-party providers, public sources, and user contributions," said Gustaf Brusewitz, spokesperson for Google Australia.
"Overall, this provides a very comprehensive and up-to-date map experience, but we recognise that there may be occasional inaccuracies that could arise from any of those sources. In this instance, we didn't get it quite right and we have now fixed it. We apologise for any inconvenience caused to local residents and visitors."

Hundreds of confused tourists found themselves 30 kilometres from a famous cliff in Norway, instead landing in a small town called Fossmork. More seriously, a 2010 Maps error which incorrectly mapped Nicaragua and Costa Rica prompted a continent-wide dispute.
Google does make it pretty easy to report a problem, with edit suggestions for businesses, landmarks, and addresses easily accessible via the Report a Problem tool, found at the bottom right corner of the map.
It just takes a few inconvenienced Maps users to take a couple for the team, I guess.
In the case of the Blue Mountains, sure, you're 30 minutes away from a national landmark, but next time you're using elevation mode, exploring the International Space Station with Street View, avoiding traffic hell or finding a parking space in the blink of an eye, you might forget your little detour.
