Google adds terrain to Google Maps
Light relief for users
Customer Success Testimonial: Recovery is Everything
Google has added a "terrain" feature to its Google Maps service, giving a nice bit of light relief to its hitherto decidedly flat cartographical offering:
While there's a limit to how close you can zoom in, users can at least get some idea of the lie of the land. The terrain view update follows Google Maps' deployment back in May of Street View, which debuted to much excitement on Google Earth.
