Google: No known use of Parcel centroids; Put geocoding limits on daily usage
GoogleCollects their own data in North America; uses TeleAtlas for international coverage (inferior and based on satellite photos)Lack information about route direction, one way streets, turn restrictions, time-based turn restrictionsLacks many road attributes such as bridge heights, speed limits, turn restrictions and route optimization for many areas. Full Google list of coverage.
Google: Uses satellite photos exclusively (Up to 1 meter per pixel); Partner: GeoEyeUnder Google they sometimes aggregate Government imagery that while sometimes high resolution can be quite old (5-10 years). I would also add that lots of their imagery is 5-10 years of age. Some streetside approaches 5 years of age. No published refresh plan for any of their imagery.
Google: Shortest, fastest, walking, transit
Google: YP points of interest available via map API
