Description
Embedding Google Map into the page does not include an accessible name. We have multiple teams with varied degree of development skill, so custom HTML to correct each time we use these is not feasible.
I have not been able to locate an existing support forum or ticket item. This is an accessibility issue that impacts audits and will show with scans using tools such as Lighthouse and Axe DevTools.

When embedding a map from Google Maps, the embed code is sourced in its entirety from Google Maps. Google does not provide a title attribute on the iframe they create, and it is not possible for WordPress to source this.
If you're using a plugin to add Google Maps, then you may be able to report this to the plugin developer; but there is no core WordPress implementation for Google Maps.
