evidence: The German officials claim the border between the two countries should run through the Dollart – a bay between the northern Netherlands and Germany on the west side of the Ems River estuary.

However, Google’s borders grant the entire Dollart and much of the Emden harbour to the Dutch. [...] The Süddeutsche Zeitung said it was likely little solace that Google Maps competitor, Microsoft's Bing, favours the German perspective on the border, cutting the Dollart in half and granting Emden its harbour.
