Google Maps launches immersive places to visit

Published

Google will introduce new Google Maps features for those who want to travel and discover new places. The new items were announced during the Search On event by a North American technology company and promise to make our popular tool an even more useful resource.

The highlight on your navigation platform is now focused on how we oscillate between the real world and the virtual world. In particular, to move from a map to the real world to an appropriate representation of places of interest, areas to explore, and the entire environment.

The big novelty introduced now is the immersive look. This is a feature that was first showcased at the Google I/O conference earlier this year, but is now finally available for integration (although there is already talk of room for improvement). In practice, we will have a new way to visualize a certain point of interest through Google Maps.

Although in a virtual way, remotely and through a smartphone / tablet or PC, it becomes possible to get to know a certain area and everything that exists in the vicinity, which allows the user to “know the place” even before visiting it. When visiting, for example, a world-famous monument, we immediately find out what are the best restaurants nearby, the weather forecast for this place, and even where is the best place to take an Instagram photo.

There are currently 250 points available through the platform. The first regions to receive improvements are the United States of America, followed by Europe.

According to the company, this alliance is the result of comprehensive research and will appear at any time with access to locations.

The second new feature coming in the coming months is Neighborhood Vibe, which will help users feel the energy and vibe of the new neighborhoods they enter by displaying other users’ comments as they scroll through the Google Maps app.
