Where does Google Local get its information?

Google Local for the United States compiles information from many sources to bring you the best of local search. Our listings combine information from our web search results, data submitted directly by local business owners, and sources such as publicly available Yellow Pages directories. Please note that we aren't currently able to share our full list of U.S. Yellow Pages sources.

The map data found in Google Local is sourced largely from NAVTEQ and TeleAtlas. Similarly, the imagery found in "Satellite" mode is sourced predominantly from DigitalGlobe and EarthSat. Although the frequency of updates may vary, we strive to refresh our map data consistently.
