Google Maps Showing Adult Images From Panoramio

Yesterday, we reported that Google's Local Business Center was injected by Google Maps Help thread with a complaint from a person who lives in Ave Maria, Florida that an adult-like image shows up in the "Explore this area" section of Google Maps for a search on Ave Maria, Florida.

Here is a screen shot:

Google Maps Offensive Adult Images

When you click on that image, it shows up larger in the map:

Google Maps Offensive Adult Images

It is here where you see that it is from Panoramio and the quick solution is to report that image as inappropriate in Panoramio.

So a proud city member is upset that this woman's underpants shows up for her city in Google Maps. I can understand that.

Yes, this is an upsetting image. Not appropriate for a supposed to be formal site like Google Maps. How could Google even allow this?
