Keep the old birds eye view
Keep the old birds eye view so you can see the old view of a location so you can see what used to be there.

Lake Sherwood in Hardy Arkansas is missing
Lake Sherwood in Hardy Arkansas is missing from your map. When you are the map that populates Zillow its kind of a problem. There are many Lake Front homes on Lake Sherwood and right now it looks like they border open space instead of a lake.

Show full name of train station
The destination stations aren't completely. Instead of "Dresden Mainstation" there's only "Mainstation" at the overview.

Fix Maps vector accuracy over Hong Kong
Return the vector component of Bing maps over Hong Kong to its former accuracy. It no longer coincides with GNSS positions or the raster layer. Both were good last year but since coming back from overseas the vector layer is inaccurate by up to several hundred metres. Such and error makes the Maps product all-but useless.

Preserve outdated bird's eye views
Recently Bing Maps announced upcoming updates to the Bird View for my city (namely - Riga, Latvia). Currently bird eye view for Riga is around 10 years old (2007-08), considered by some as outdated. I am historian and I am part of Riga historian society. We are using Bing maps to research our city's history in recent 15 years. By updating Bing Maps Bird View, Bing would simply kill all our activities and the history will be lost. Please preserve old pictures! We do not need updated bird eyes' for Riga and Latvia! Or is there any possibility to download…

Location placement
It is more than a typo error. The map you show for Pakistan is wrong. Kashmir is made a part of India whereas it is part of Pakistan

Work with open street maps so that map data is more accurate
Work with OpenStreetMap.org so that map data is more accurate globally. Given that Microsoft is embracing open standards why not utilize and contribute data to OpenStreetMaps.org and build off and improve a platform which has great global coverage? It also utilizes the community to update maps and correct errors. This could allow Bing Maps to compete with and out-do Google in many respects.

Bring back bird's eye view
I am a professional civil engineer, who used Bing maps almost every day until you got rid of the birds eye view option. There is now no reason for me to use Bing maps over any other map program. I have read that you're going to be bringing it back in some metropolitan areas. This doesn't help me, since I used it to investigate rivers and dams. Please bring back the birds eye view option, or at least allow us access to the older data.

Office 365 Log in for Bing Maps
I am an educator and Bing Maps could be a fantastic tool for learning. Unfortunately, it requires a Microsoft log in to access some features, and my students only have Office 365 log ins. Could you add Office 365 as a log in option?

Safe Areas
Bing Maps should add a layer which could be configurable for third party developers for areas based on crime reports. There are regions in city which may have a high rate of crime which would be useful to know if you are driving through a new city late at night, or taking a bike path home. Real estate Apps as well as Ride sharing Apps could also protect their clients with this information and improve their product experience.
e.g. I am looking for a house in Washington DC, certain regions are safe, some are being gentrified, some are crime ridden,…

add bing map editor
Add a map editor (just like google map has one) in bing maps so that we can add places and suggest changes.It will be more authentic to the map since public participation is also included.Any way there will be some corrections since new roads as well as buildings are building day to day.

Switch years in Bird Eye's View
I would like to have an option to switch between older and current Bing Maps to see what used to be there. Example: I want to see what was before the construction in year 2007. I cannot see this place anymore in 2017 just because there is no such option. But a month ago I saw that 2007 pictures. Are they lost?
7 votesThank you for the feedback. We do not have any plans to show historic imagery, but this may change in the future.
