![]() ![]() Neighborhood vibe starts rolling out globally in the coming months on Android and iOS.īeyond helping you experience a place before you visit, we’re also changing the way you explore it in the moment. To determine the vibe of a neighborhood, we combine AI with local knowledge from Google Maps users who add more than 20 million contributions to the map each day - including reviews, photos and videos. Say you’re on a trip to Paris - you can quickly know if a neighborhood is artsy or has an exciting food scene so you can make an informed decision on how to spend your time. Soon, with our new neighborhood vibe feature, you’ll be able to select a neighborhood and see the most popular spots come to life thanks to helpful photos and information from the Google Maps community right on the map. If you’re visiting a new neighborhood, it can be hard to figure out what's worth exploring, what’s new, and what the local gems are. At Search On, we shared how we’re reimagining Google Maps yet again, with a visual and intuitive map that allows you to experience a place as if you’re there - all thanks to the newest advancements in computer vision and predictive models. Features like live traffic transformed how people get from point A to B, and insights like busyness information changed the way people make decisions about where to go.
