- 1. GOOGLE MAPS & EARTH Chestnuthill Township Presented By: John Mathews
- 2. 911 READDRESSING PROJECT • Following the County wide 911 Readdressing Project very few addresses within the county were searchable using any navigation software. – Google Maps - Map Quest – Apple Maps - Garmin – TomTom - Etc. • This poses a real issue for both business and residential property owners within Monroe County. – Businesses could not be found online – Residential addresses were not navigable • The Supervisors and Staff at Chestnuthill Township felt it was necessary to come up with a solution for this problem.

THE SOLUTION • Google Maps accounts for roughly 78% of all Mobile Travel Usage • Google Search is used by nearly 77% of all Internet Users worldwide. • Out of all Google Searches 73% of them are local requests, such as Restaurants, Shoppe's, etc. – Now google search even includes a google map of what your looking for…
