Neogeography provides instant information to its users, however, there are several pitfalls behind it, such as information inaccuracy. Since everyone can access neogeography, we do not know who is sharing and publishing the information; therefore, we can not be 100% sure that the information is correct. For example, everyone can access to Wikipedia and edit the information, so the accuracy of information from Wikipedia is not guaranteed.
Moreover, the loss of privacy is also a pitfall of neogeography. The satellite from Google Map can capture the street view from almost everywhere. For example, the picture captured by satellite may include a person appear at a specific place. A satellite may accidentally captures the image of inside view of a person's house. Since everyone can access to neogeography, people can see that person's privacy accidentally or the person may feel uncomfortable of appearing in a public image.
Despite the inaccuracy and privacy, neogeography can help people in lots of ways, for instance, helping companies make decisions depend on geography. When we get lost at a place, our GPS guides us out. Neogeography really helps the people, but we just need to fix the flaws of neogeography and make it more reliable.
