New updates rolled out for Google Maps and Earth

American multinational company Google is working on new updates for Google Maps and Google Earth in an effort to improve the users’ experience and help them understand the ever-changing world.

The new updates include expansion of Street View, sharper satellite imagery with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) for Google Maps and historical imagery feature for Google Earth on the web, reported Android central.

Google’s changes in an update to Street View on Google Maps include “new imagery”, which is expected to be available in nearly 80 countries.

Notably, this expansion in Google Maps brings better virtual adventures in places like Bosnia, Namibia, Liechtenstein, Paraguay and more.

Additionally, the company stated that it has made creating better Street View imagery a breeze in more places as it will continue to update Maps' Street View for better virtual details in countries like Australia, Argentina, Brazil, Costa Rica, the Philippines, and more.

It is also important to note that the Street View expansion launched on September 25, which means users should keep eyes on this update.

Parallel to this, Google also introduced updates on Google Earth. Users will soon have an easier time turning back the clock on a portion of the planet as a new “historical imagery” feature will soon become accessible on Google Earth’s web version, according to a statement by the company.

This update will allow users to find around 80 years of stored "satellite and aerial imagery" of the planet's geography to understand the changes it experienced.

The company states that some places will send you back to the 30s — like London, Berlin, or Paris.

In addition to the fore mentioned updates, images viewed in Google Maps and Earth will also benefit from sharper quality with the assistance of AI.
