Google Earth to get radically better 3D images, new UI on iOS and Android
Google has announced its plans to improve 3D maps. It’s using "automated technology to extract 3D from aerial images." The effect is stunning, every building is competely modeled from street to roof. Compared to the scattershot look of Google Earth before, it’s night and day. Google demonstrated the 3D images on both Android tablets and iOS, and said the new features should be coming soon, but didn't specify an exact date. The feature should cover "several" cities, and the goal is to have a "very large number" by the end of the year.
