(Cross-posted from the Google Lat Long Blog)Members of our
Google Map Maker community have always told us that the biggest milestone after launching maps for their countries is adding driving directions. A few months ago we
launched driving directions in 18 countries in Eastern Europe and Asia-Pacific. We have now enabled directions in 111 new countries and territories across the globe.
So, whether you find yourself in
Lima, Peru or visiting
Iceland or driving from
Johannesburg to Nairobi, you can now use Google Maps to find out how to get around.
