Google Maps Goes Indoors

November 29, 2011 By Editor

Via the Official Google Maps Lat/Long blog, details of the newest features in Google maps mobile (Android) indoor mapping.

This from the blog…

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. Starting today, 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.

If you’re a business owner interested in getting your location’s floor plan included in Google Maps, visit maps.google.com/floorplans.
