TEACHING GOOGLE MAPS

Google Maps is one of the most powerful and widely used mapping platforms in the world. More than 1 billion people per month actively use Maps to navigate and explore our planet.

 I have a new free course on Google Maps. 

Here is a brief overview of Google Maps:

Google Maps is one of the most powerful and widely used mapping platforms in the world. More than 1 billion people per month actively use Maps to navigate and explore our planet.

At its core, Maps provides satelite imagery and street maps covering over 220 countries and territories. Anything with an address can be located, with search supporting 50,000+ languages.

But Maps offers so much more than basic navigation. Features like Street View, indoor venue mapping, traffic updates and public transit schecules provide invaluable real-world context. 3D modeling and aerial photography bring the virtual world as close to real life as possible.

Developers have also extended Maps' reach tremendously. Thousands of third party integrations utilize the API, whether it's for ridesharing, logistics or literally any field involving location services.

As an AI-powered platform, Google Maps continues advancing at an incredible pace. Emerging technologies promise self-driving routes, AR navigation augmentations and much more. New experiences are constantly improving people's lives globally.

In summary, Google Maps has established itself as the de facto standard for how we explore and understand our planet. It remains the pinnacle of geospatial technology and an inspiration for what can be achieved at Google's vast scale. I look forward to following its ongoing innovation!
