Similar to other types of sources, maps should not be [[WP:SPS|self -published sources]], and the [[WP:RS|reliability of the publisher]] should be considered before use. Maps directly derived from government surveys, GIS data and aerial or satellite images are generally reliable. Maps made by commercial interests for promotion of business may not be reliable. Online maps should be treated the same as web sources, listing both the date the cartography was completed (if known) and the date the information was accessed, as online content can frequently change.
