Automation routine in apple maps unsupported country

Hi. I'm a newcomer to the iPhone platform, and found "Shortcuts" issues with location automation - my country doesn't supporting in apple maps (there are no buildings). So I can't set home and work address in "Contacts". If I can't add an address in contacts, daily routine can't be automated in Shortcuts.

My idea for shortcut - check location data (apple maps address doesn't supported) and check wifi accessibility:

at home - turn on wifi, turn off location, mobile data, bluetooth, airdrop;
outside - turn off wifi, turn on location, mobile data, bluetooth, airdrop.

So, can it been solved without adding building on apple maps? Now for apple maps it looks like I'm living in camping trailer.

If there is no Apple Maps support in a particular country or region (which can be for various reasons, including business reasons, and cases involving sanctions and embargoes), then there is no navigation support, and then no associated shortcuts will work, so, no.

Not short of switching mapping services to one with support, or creating your own mapping and your own navigation service. Which won’t be integrated with Shortcuts.
