This fusion of technology enables three-dimensional exploration of iconic landmarks, restaurants and locations, recreating them in vivid detail thanks to AI which combines Street View images and aerial images.

Often compared to Live View [Live View], they are different functionalities. This is because, among other things, the new tool from Google Maps allows you to virtually fly over a location to get a sense of the traffic and how busy it is. It is currently only available in 15 cities, including Amsterdam, Barcelona, London, Paris or Tokyo.
HOW TO USE THE IMMERSIVE VISA?
