Unfortunately, fires appear when you least expect them and it is very difficult for us to know in real time what is going on. This can be problematic especially when we want to go to certain places. For example, camping. Now behold, Google Maps has received one of the great news that will tell us if forest fires are active and where they are.
Google Maps: one of the great news has just arrived!
In practice it is a new layer that is undoubtedly very useful. So when the function is working you can tap an active fire to see all the information available, including local resources such as emergency websites and phone numbers, as well as information about when and how we need to leave the area. This change is a massive improvement over an existing feature that only showed one fire at a time. This way we have access to multiple fires that may be active in the same area.
In addition to evacuation and emergency information, Google will update each fire listing with burned acres and other details as quickly as possible. Of course we have to be connected to the internet to see updated data in real time.
In fact, Google is betting heavily in all areas and improving Maps to attract more users and keep the current ones are always interested.
Although thinking about user safety which is so important, Google is not wasting time bringing this layer to users. Coming to Android globally this week. On the other hand, releases for the iOS
and computer are scheduled for October as revealed by the website Android Police.
All you can do more for our security is welcome! So it’s good to see Google implement all these new features in apps.
