Indoor Google Maps available in the UK
Google has announced that users in the UK can now get indoor maps on their Android devices. The update to Google Maps allows users to get a map of the inside of several venues.
You can get directions to a certain point within the building, and it’ll even recognize which floor you’re on. Google’s come out of the UK starting gate with 40 different venues to start, and as you can imagine a lot of those venues are train stations, department stores, and airports.
Google’s committed to bringing more over time, and they’ll even accept floor plans from store owners who want their store included in the future.
You can get to the indoor map of a venue by simply zooming in on its location. Find more information at the Google Lat Long (fancy way of saying Maps) blog here.
