The issue is it's going to be trained only on places people go. My understanding is that most geolocating systems are more focused on the uncommon or less traveled locations. Maybe I'm wrong, but I guess they're probably tested it out before announcing it.
Maybe they will start/already have putting pokemon in locations that they need data for to make a more comprehensive map.
