According to an article in The Chicago Tribune by Jon Hilkevitch, Google Maps will be providing bIcycle routes. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/ct-met-google-bike-maps-20100309,0,2754765.story
|
They will also provide 99% of UK roads on Street View tonight |
Bicycles roads layer is already available right now. |
Aww got me excited then found out the bicycle routes are US only :(
Hope that it's true about the UK street view. It's been nearly 10 months since they took the pictures :( |
(I meant 10 months since they did my area, not the whole country)
Just found Tom's (re)tweet about it with a link: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/google/7407222/Google-Streetview-to-cover-every-UK-road.html |
If you're looking at 1:05 of the below video : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JN5_NBSu7Lw
You will see a layer "Latitude" which is not available right now.
Plutot cool non ? |
you have the eye of the tiger :D |
Maybe related to the fact that Chrome will soon have the geoloc API ? Nice find (again) Fr! |
