Google Maps

Accessing Google Maps with your PCC account?

Google Maps is available to all PCC staff and PCC students who have begun the current term and are registered for classes. Before the first day of a student’s registered term, students will only have access to PCC Google Email, not Google Drive or additional Google Applications.

To use Google Maps with your PCC Gmail account, go to this Google Group and select Join Group.

To join the Google group manually, navigate to Google Groups from Gmail, select All Groups & Messages, and search for the group name: gs-google-maps-group. Once you have found the group name, click on the group, and then you can join by clicking the Join Group button.

*Please note that location history is not enabled at PCC.
