Google Maps Wants To Be Your Next Tour Guide With New Geospatial Ar Content
- Google has announced geospatial AR content for Google Maps.
- The interactive content aims to help users explore and learn about famous landmarks.
- The feature is rolling out as a pilot program, landing in Singapore and Paris later this year.
Google has recently rolled out several updates to Maps, including 3D buildings and green travel options promoting more planet-friendly transport modes. At Google I/O 2024, the company announced the addition of geospatial AR content to Google Maps, making the app a more interactive travel companion.
When content is available, and a user is close to a landmark, an AR Experience tile will appear in that landmark’s photo roll. Users can tap this content and hold their phone up to that landmark to view a Lens guide that divulges interesting information about the area, including fun facts and deeper history.
