Google Indoor Map

By using Google map we can go to any unknown places without any fear because Google map help us to reach the correct destination. Now Google went one more step forward and it has launched a Google indoor maps. Yes, Google gave fine new view of indoor locations for UK users. This Google indoor maps show us the clear plans of many commercial locations like Airports, Railway Stations, Malls, departmental stores and more. It is the part of the standard Google map apps, if you zoom in to a particular mall or Airport; indoor map will appear where you can easily navigate for coffee shop, rest room etc.

For an instance now you are standing in a particular mall, just by zooming in to that mall you can find necessary shops in different floors. No need to roam here and there or enquiring with others. Even in departmental stores just by using indoor map to find children section, cosmetic center whatever we want.

Google states that more than 40 venues had supported, and many of them are like Railway stations, malls and museums. Even the building owners can upload their floor plans in Google map for future inclusion. You can also a check  a full list of supported locations on Google’s website.

In normal Google map you can see the streets, Railway station, art galleries and malls. Now just zoom in to the Railway station the indoor maps will “magically” appear, where you can easily find where the coffee shops, books shop restroom etc. are situated.

At present Google Indoor maps are available only in selected location like United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Switzerland, and Japan.

Hope shortly it will come to India.
