So much so that this tool has become key for all types of users, whether they are regular travelers or the opposite. We say this because Google Maps, in addition to guiding us on our journeys, allows us to visit places around the globe without leaving home. If you normally use this application for this second method that we are talking about, viewing sites on the device’s screen, a function has just arrived that you will surely love.
And it is that for some time now there has been a lot of talk about a function called Immersive View that the search giant has already shown in certain cities. First of all, it appeared in cities as important as London, Tokyo or New York. The good news is that this long-awaited functionality has been extended to other countries and we can now enjoy it here in Spain. Specifically, it has arrived for the cities of Madrid, Barcelona and Cordoba. Obviously it is to be expected that it will spread to others little by little.
So that you get a more approximate idea of what we are telling you, it is a new way of viewing certain emblematic places of those sites.
We will have the possibility of making a three dimensional aerial view of those selected places recreating those buildings, and we will even be able to see the interior of some of them. What’s more, the aforementioned immersive view functionality also offers us important information about those selected places.
How to use Google Maps Immersive View
It is important to know that this aerial view of certain, as well as important places in our geography, relies on AI to display a is the new display mode.
Once we get the feature up and running Immersive view on Google Maps on any element that supports it, we can now move comfortably from our mobile. In order to benefit from this functionality that we are talking about, all we have to do is locate one of the many special places in our geography, and activate the tool as such. At this time we can visit virtually and in this way the Sagrada Familia, the Mosque of Córdoba, the Royal Palace, and more.
Of course, something that we must keep in mind is that this is a function that has not yet reached everyone in our country. Its availability is being carried out gradually, so if you still do not have it available on the mobile screen, it will probably arrive in a matter of hours or a few days.
In addition, we will tell you that some interesting functions have also been integrated into the desktop version of this Google application. We find a new toolbar with the last places recently searched on the platform. This gives us much faster access to the places that really interest us, for example, to plan routes and trips more effectively and comfortably.
