Google Maps API


After we covered papers that discuss using the Google Maps API to showcase data on the map, all in all the results indicate that Google Maps provide a highly responsive, elegant, and an intuitive interface coupled with detailed street and aerial imagery data. In addition, map controls can be embedded in the product to give users full control over map navigation and the display of street and imagery data. The easy and relatively simple customization of the Google Map’s API to meet (specific) application needs has led to its rapid acceptance. Thus, it is clear that the use of Google Street View for classifying roof materials has truly made this VGI application unique.
