 192.com has announced the first in a series of major improvements to its maps service, which was first launched last autumn and has since been experiencing a surge in traffic during recent months.
192.com has republished all of its street maps after redrawing every UK map to incorporate the latest Ordnance Survey data and ensure all street labelling is shown in an easy to read format.
The colouring of the maps has also been optimised to suit motorists and non-motorists alike and to accommodate the changing requirements of computer and mobile screens.
The aerial photography has also been improved further and offers clarity and resolution nationwide, not just in cities.
The update also sees a new 192.com Journey Planner including a fully interactive travel map and ‘real route’ directions that accurately navigate around major landmarks and highlight the major distances in your journey.
At the same time, 192.com’s business mapping solutions have received a boost with the launch of five new ready to implement modules including a multi-criteria store locator, store profile module and customisable journey planner.
A business Application Programming Interface (API) has also been made available which will make it even easier for businesses to embed 192.com maps into their own websites and build their own dynamic interactive mapping applications.
