The online maps have changed our perception of looking towards maps. By integrating latest technologies, online maps have provided dynamic features that have made locating anything anywhere much easy. The online maps are proving to be much beneficial than traditional maps.

  • Unlike traditional printed maps, even the most recent changes are updated in online maps. However, traditional maps could be having outdated information. Traditional maps are static maps and it takes a lot of time to update and insert information. Plus, many new roads may be missing. The city has also expanded rapidly, old maps do not cover the outskirts in sufficient detail. The online maps are continuously updated.
  • Allows you to view maps at required level of detail through features like zoom in/out and different views.
  • Online maps are more interactive while printed maps are static and only give detail up to a specific level. Various interactive features make it easy to understand information and easily follow road directions.
  • Online maps are easy to distribute. One can easily email the map of the location which is convenient and saves a lot of time.
