Read the discuss below, we share some tips to fix the issue about How to change my website's map data image (maybe from knowledge graph) in the search results?.Problem :

I'm trying to change the image shown in a website's SERP, when using Google. I installed the JSON-LD Knowledge Graph application script already.

<script type="application/ld+json">

      "@context": "https://schema.org",
      "@type": "ImageObject",
      "author": "Georges Jean-Denis",
      "contentLocation": "Montreal Quebec, Canada",
      "contentUrl": "https://lushyne.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/01/slider_lushyne_1.jpg",
      "datePublished": "2021-02-15",
      "description": "MAIN WEBSITE PICTURE ...",
      "name": "MAIN PICTURE"

</script>

I get this image when I do this Google search for "lushyne" or click on any of the following links.

• https://www.google.com/search?q=lushyne


• https://www.google.com/search?q=lushyne&rlz=1C1CHBD_enCA940CA940&oq=lushyne&aqs=chrome..69i57.3400j0j1&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

But that is not Lushyne from my website. It is Lushyne, a city in Ukraine. Google tells me so (caption: Map data ©2021 Google.)

That does not work for me. What would you do to make this work?
Do I need to do something with the Google Search Console?

Solution :

API Google Knowledge Graph scrapes structured data which in turn for images Google supports for the following types:

• Article


• Product


• Recipe


• Video

It is not clear from your question what type your image is.
You can use these Google guidelines for your images:

To non-amp: For best results, provide multiple high-resolution images
(minimum of 300,000 pixels when multiplying width and height) with the
following aspect ratios: 16x9, 4x3, and 1x1.

To amp: For best results, provide multiple high-resolution images
(minimum of 800,000 pixels when multiplying width and height) with the
following aspect ratios: 16x9, 4x3, and 1x1.

There is also an example there:

    
  "@context": "https://schema.org",
  "@type": "NewsArticle",
  "image": [
    "https://example.com/photos/1x1/photo.jpg",
    "https://example.com/photos/4x3/photo.jpg",
    "https://example.com/photos/16x9/photo.jpg"
  ]

In addition, even if there is structured data consistent with Google's guide, they do not undertake to use this data in a rich result. Check out the following Google statement about structured data:

Important: Google does not guarantee that your structured data will
show up in search results, even if your page is marked up correctly
according to the Rich Results Test. Here are some common reasons why:

Using structured data enables a feature to be present, it does not
guarantee that it will be present. The Google algorithm tailors search
results to create what it thinks is the best search experience for a
user, depending on many variables, including search history, location,
and device type. In some cases it may determine that one feature is
more appropriate than another, or even that a plain blue link is best.
The structured data is not representative of the main content of the
page, or is potentially misleading. The structured data is incorrect
in a way that the Rich Results Test was not able to catch. The content
referred to by the structured data is hidden from the user. The page
does not meet the guidelines for structured data described here, the
type-specific guidelines, or the general webmaster guidelines.

If the issue about google-search-console, google-search, schema.org, search-results is resolved, there’s a good chance that your content will get indexed and you’ll start to show up in Google search results. This means a greater chance to drive organic search traffic to your site.
