Google Maps gets some new features

Google’s free online map service Google maps’ new version is released with some new features which will help users to navigate inside airports, transit centers, and major shops in the United States and Japan. Now this software will provide detailed floorplans marked with blue dots showing where users are to within several meters.

“Google Maps for Android enables you to figure out where you are and see where you might want to go when you’re indoors,” Google Earth and Maps vice president of engineering Brian McClendon said in a blog post.

“When you’re inside an airport, shopping mall, or retail store, a common way to figure out where you are is to look for a freestanding map directory or ask an employee for help,” He said.

“With the release of Google Maps 6.0 for Android, that directory is brought to the palm of your hands, helping you determine where you are, what floor you’re on, and where to go indoors,” he added.
