The New-er Google Maps with More imagery, more StreetView and Pegman

November 8, 2013 By Editor

Remember PegMan? You know, the cool little guy that helps you navigate around Google maps? Well, google has brought back pegman (did you notice he was gone?) . Recall, he’s the little yellow guy that would drag onto a street map in order to gain access to Google Street View imagery. In addition to the return of pegman Google maps is also offering a host of new features like photo spheres (think 360 degree imagery) , Earth Tours (stunning 3D imagery of buildings), and more. See more about the latest updates in this blog post on slashgear or see the google maps blog for more .

See also here for details of the new Google Maps for desktop. Oh, and check out ALL the different Pegman icons available from Google. WOW!
