Google Maps should endure a tool for opportunity in addition to uncovering non a tool for hiring bloody expensive individual hire cars. Today's conclusion to re-introduce Wikipedia onto Google Maps is thus i of the few right decisions Google has made amongst the novel await Google Maps.

In my persuasion i of the biggest mistakes Google Maps made was removing the Wikipedia layer from both the classic in addition to novel await Google Maps. Thankfully Wikipedia is back, if entirely on the novel Google Maps.

One of the things I actually loathe virtually the novel Google Maps is its personalized points of interest. It adds places to the map that it knows I oftentimes visit.

It decides to map the things I actually don't desire to come across on the map at the expense of non showing data which it has decided I'm non interested in. Wrong, incorrect wrong!

One of the glorious things virtually Google Maps is that it has ever allowed us to explore the basis through the map layer, plough on satellite take in in addition to take in incredibly detailed imagery of the basis in addition to fifty-fifty render us amongst an immersive sense of places nosotros powerfulness never cash inwards one's chips to take in inwards mortal past times switching to Street View.

It turns Google Maps into a wonderful tool for uncovering in addition to adventure. Now that's what a map should be.

The novel Wikipedia layer on Google Maps is called 'Quick Facts'. If yous instantly click on i of the pocket-sized circles on the map, which signal points of interest, the Quick Facts for the location volition endure displayed nether the search box. The Quick Facts also look when yous search for a dot of interest.

At concluding in that location is something to cheer virtually on the novel Google Maps. Let's promise Google cash inwards one's chips on to plough Google Maps dorsum into the world's most amazing tool for exploration in addition to discovery.
