Google Maps - Immersive View



Sundar Pichai unveils the next generation of Google maps. Immersive View is coming to Google Maps - awesome innovation, viewing would become a totally new and interactive experience hereafter!

The new Immersive View is sort of a Street View in the sky: you can look over a location from above to get a sense of the neighborhood and then drop to street level to see the specific spots you might want to hit up. Maps overlays its live busyness and traffic info, so you get a quasi-augmented reality look at whatever park or street corner or beach spot you’re looking at.

Developers are already using the API to make apps that are even more useful and provide an easy way to interact with both the digital and physical worlds at once. Shared electric vehicle company 

Lime is piloting the API in London, Paris, Tel Aviv, Madrid, San Diego, and Bordeaux to help riders park their e-bikes and e-scooters responsibly and out of pedestrians’ right of way. Telstra and Accenture are using it to help sports fans and concertgoers find their seats, concession stands and restrooms at Marvel Stadium in Melbourne

Artificial Intelligence will continue to play a critical role in making Google Maps the most comprehensive and helpful map possible for people everywhere.
