Google has added a 3D route preview button to Google maps. This new feature allows you to see the route of a place as you are seeing from helicopter.
Google announced this on a post saying,”Today, we are launching a new feature that allows you to bring your upcoming trip to life, by allowing you to preview your route in 3D.”
“To preview your own route, it is as simple as clicking on a button. Start by entering your starting point, destination, and mode of transport like any directions; in this case, driving directions from ‘Carmel CA to Big Sur CA.’ Then, just click on the “3D” play button. The map will switch to Earth view and automatically start flying you along your recommended route,” it added.
User can also pause the preview at anytime and can return to 2D view.
