TRANSPORT - MAPS & ROUTE PLANNERS - 25.08.2010

Bing Maps in 3D as well

In Google Maps (http://maps.google.com) you can view 3D images via the Earth option. This requires you to install the Google Earth plug-in application. Competitors can’t afford to lag behind, of course, and that’s why Bing Maps (http://www.bing.com/maps) now also supports three-dimensional maps. When you click on 3D, you will be asked whether the required plug-in may be installed. If you confirm, you will be able to view the 3D images a few moments later by using the Ctrl-key and the mouse. However, Bing supports fewer 3D cities than Google for the time being, and moreover the module was slower in our test.

Viewing 3D images is now possible in Bing Maps as well, but Google Maps remains more comprehensive and faster when it comes to 3D.
