A computing device can present a map user interface for users to suggest updates to entry point data for a place, such as points of interest to the user. For an entry point, the computing device can present an entry point indicator that remains in a fixed position on a map view. The user may move the map view as the entry point indicator remains fixed. In response to inputs, the computing device can adjust the map view, so that the fixed entry point indicator lies in a new position relative to the point of interest. The computing device can also insert an entry point indicator on the map view. In response to user inputs, the computing device can associate a location of the inserted entry point indicator with the location of an entry point. The computing device can send the entry point data changes to a server for implementation.

User feedback interfaces for map location entry points

In some implementations, a computing device can be configured to perform impact-based fraud detection. For example, a computing device (e.g., a network server) can receive user submissions from user devices corresponding to traffic incident reports, point of interest (POI) ratings, product ratings, vendor ratings, and/or other crowd-sourced information. The computing device can identify groups of users based on the user submissions and various grouping criteria. The computing device can determine the impact of these user groups with respect to the targets (e.g., traffic in an area, ratings of a business, etc.) of their user submissions. The computing device can prioritize high impact user groups when attempting to detect fraudulent user group activity (e.g., fraud rings).
