Since Apple launched its own map software in 2012 and faced off against Gooogle maps, it has been ridiculed from the beginning to gradually appearing affirmative voices, and Google has also accelerated the launch of an improved version of the map program. The two can be said to be in a healthy competition. Google's software response and loading speed gradually catch up with Apple, and Apple's map richness and accuracy are gradually approaching Google. At present, the most flawed is that Google has not launched the iPad version of the map software until the first half of 2013!
Those who travel frequently to Japan and have an iPad mini in hand, I recommend you to try "Yahoo! 地図" launched by Yahoo! JAPAN. Since Yahoo! Japan’s largest shareholder is Softbank, it can naturally integrate many local resources in Japan. , This map software exclusively launched in Japan’s APP Store provides a lot of detailed maps and local information in Japan. It is also limited to the Japanese region. Of course, under the advantage of the landlord country, Yudiao Island is also included. Each expresses it!
For those who want to take into account detailed map information and large-screen browsing, and are used to using maps to inquire about local life information, this "Yahoo! Lands" is highly recommended, but you also need to have an Internet connection.It should be noted that this is a map software that is only available in the App Store in Japan. Users must first apply for an account in Japan. Secondly, in comparison, the map data of this software is not fast enough to load, but it is acceptable. That's it.
The Yahoo! JAPAN map provides a variety of layer options. In addition to the necessary satellite aerial photos, there are also thematic maps such as railways, waters, and topography, as well as underground street information, and even white and black tone maps for the adequacy of light sources.
The most common map layer provides a lot of local data, and the screen is large enough to take into account the advantages of both Apple and Google. The loading speed still needs to be enhanced.
The resolution of the aerial map is quite clear, compared to Apple's still miserable and blurry aerial map, it can be said to be a win.
Japan, which has developed transportation facilities, must of course provide information on transportation facilities. Of course, this is also Google's strength, but Google has not yet released the iPad version of the software.
If there is an underground street in the browsing location, you can click "underground street" to see the underground street map information; if not, the option will be highlighted and cannot be clicked.
The software production information explains the partner and the source of the data.
The most powerful software is information query, which is divided into four categories: "dining", "shopping", "play" and "life", providing rich and detailed sub-categories.
The sub-items of the four types of information inquiries are classified, and there are sub-items under the sub-items, and the categories are quite detailed.Of course, you can also directly click Search All without further setting sub-items.
Taking the sub-item "Hospitals and Clinics" for further classification of various departments, it can be said that the classification is extreme.
After pressing frequently on the map, you can place the fixed-point icon on the map, and after further clicking, you can search for other relevant information for the location.
Provides the address and traffic information of the location location, as well as the traffic data search of the nearest station.
Quickly indicate the transportation mode and distance from the designated place to the nearest station, and provide a reference for the most common walking time in Japan.
Provide detailed function and operation instructions for further reference for more advanced search and operation.
