the commercial map underneath stopped working normally for some,
probably also commercial, reason. <br>

Off the top of my head businesses etc can provide map of where
they are located without payment and list their web sites and
phone numbers etc.<br>
<br>
Is there a web page somewhere that covers this?<br>
<br>
It is quite a serious question and I suspect will be used to
justify some expenditure and effort to help enrich the map.<br>
