Google Maps: Route Planning with Street View
15 May. 2008 | Author: The USA-version of Google Maps now offers yet another new feature. The search engine giant has now integrated its panorama view “Street View” into its route planner.
Thereby users are able to orient themselves before their journey as to the waypoints and local features, as outlined by Google staffer Andy Szybalski in Google Lat Long Blog. This works only for localities where street views have been documented and released. Whether or not this feature is available, is indicated by a camera icon within the route instructions generated.
With a click on the photo icon, the street view opens on the map, for the specified location. Using the fat white arrow, one is able to manipulate the view to gain an ‘actual’ idea of the planned stretch of roadway, seeing attractions, speed limits or the construction/layout of the street in question.
Google has also provided a short video to enlarge on the details of this new function.
