Google Has Given Tralee The 3D Mapping Experience

Google Maps

ONE of the coolest features on Google Maps is the ability to zoom in and scan around streets and buildings in 3D.

Google first brought in this feature in 2006 and finally ten years later Tralee has been given the 3D Google Maps experience.

The feature allows the user to fly over Tralee scanning all the nooks and crannies of the town and gain a new perspective of a very familiar environment.

While before, everything looked flat when the view of Tralee was tilted in Google Maps, now you can see it in a whole new way.

If you’ve not used Google Maps 3D before it’s real easy to operate.

First go to Google Maps, click on ‘Map’ in the square on the bottom left, this will change the view to ‘Earth’.

Hold down the ‘Ctrl’ button on Windows or ‘Cmd’ if using Apple. Right click on the screen, hold right click down, move the cursor around and continue scanning. That’s it!

Here are some of views that can be achieved…
