Google announced many innovations for Search, Maps and Lens applications at its Search On 2021 event on Wednesday. Those who make it a hobby to get lost by relying on navigation, those who think that they have turned to the street they want to reach, but encounter a dead end or stairs, Google Maps is trying to make it easier for you to find an address.
Among the innovations announced at the event, viewing forest fires on Maps, machine learning-supported suggestions in search results, and new functions in the Lens application stand out. Introduced innovations are expected to be available in the coming weeks. Among the prominent innovations are Maps.
Regulation for missing roads, nameless streets and fires
Google has done some major planning in its Maps app for unnamed streets and missing roads. Accordingly, Google announced the Adress Maker application, which is based on the open source system called Plus Codes, to assign functional addresses. Local governments and non-governmental organizations will be able to easily generate addresses for people using the application.
In addition to this feature, Google has introduced new features that make it easier to view forest fires and trees. This will provide simultaneous real-time updates on multiple fires. In addition, the Mountain View-based company has added new Maps features that will make it easier to take aerial snapshots of wildfires and trees. The navigation app is getting a new wildfire layer that will provide real-time updates on multiple fires at once. Users located in an affected area will be able to ask local authorities for help by tapping the red sign showing the place where the fire occurred.
