Ok, this is a project.

I was looking at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim on Google Maps recently, and I noticed that all of the attractions are labelled. Have a look at Disney California Adventure in particular. All of the buildings say what they are. This is really useful.

Then I had a look at Disneyland Paris on Google Maps and basically nothing is labelled. And of the few labels there are, they're in the wrong locations.

So, fellow forum members, how do we go about getting Disneyland Paris all labelled up? I'm willing to do, because it would only take a few hours, but I don't know how.

The labels are there because Google have made a new tool called Google Map Maker. There should be a button that takes you to it in the bottom right corner. It doesn't work in Europe, though.

By the way, have you heard of openstreetmaps.org? It's a free map that's created entirely by members, and the DLP fans that use it have made a good map of DLP.

Thanks for all that information Meph. So Google Map Maker isn't available in Europe? When I look at Disneyland Paris on Google Maps I see some buttons such as "My places" and "Maps Labs", but these aren't the same, right?

I hadn't heard of OpenStreetMaps.org until you brought it up. The map they have on there, of Disneyland Paris, is very detailed. All of the attractions and restaurants in both parks are named.

On a similar note, I also discovered Wikimapia.org, which has places outlined on a satellite map, which highlight in yellow as you mouse-over them:
