Google Updates Maps For 10 Countries and Regions In Europe, Ground Truth Now At Work In 40 Countries

When we sat down with the Google Maps team a few months ago, we got an inside look at how Google makes its Maps product the best, most authoritative and reliable service in the world. Google says over 1 billion people use Maps each month. The tools that are used internally to build the maps that we see are a mix of Google's own data and infrastructure, as well as data from other sources and updates from the community all passed through its internal Ground Truth initiative. At the time, I described the project as using Photoshop, with layers, but for mapping. It's really fun to watch someone work on it. Today, the Maps team announced an update for 10 areas in Europe.
