Google Maps is getting an update today, which includes new street view functions. The updates are subtle but mean that via your Android mobile, you can get a lot more in depth with the street view you’re exploring.
Google Maps is getting an update today, which includes new street view functions. The updates are subtle but mean that via your Android mobile, you can get a lot more in depth with the street view you’re exploring.
The little orange street view man is where the new functions lie. He has been given a new lease of life, new flexibilities, and can travel around a panorama. The Google street cars, when filming, also collected information about the 3D structure of a scene, which means that you can skip to view the facade of a building, and street view recognises the angle of the building.
The update is launching today, and will be available within a few hours.
