Google Maps comes in Prague with detailed street views
Maps by Google (Google maps) are constantly evolving. Many of the innovations that emerge have a global reach. However, sometimes only users within a certain location will be upgraded. This is also the case of the latest improvement for our country, which so far only concerns Prague. Google Maps in the territory of the capital provide detailed information about the layout of the street. Users can look forward to seeing the exact shape and width of individual roads, sidewalks, pedestrian crossings and islands. Thanks to this improvement, people in particular can refer to a wheelchair or parents with children in a pram can plan their route with regard to the possibilities of crossing the street. Prague thus became one of the other destinations around the world, where Google, with the help of artificial intelligence and knowledge of urban landscapes, significantly refined the local display.
To view detailed information about street layouts and their shape or pedestrian crossings and islands, it is necessary to zoom in on the map. When displaying a wider area, the details are still hidden in the interest of legibility of the map base.
