One of the most impressive parts of Apple Maps is something called “Detailed City Experience,” which offers incredible 3D recreations of major cities around the world and their associated landmarks. This week, Apple has expanded this feature to Boston for the first time…
The change was first spotted by Frank McShan on Twitter, who shared a handful of screenshots of the new immersive 3D design. Writing at SixColors, Boston native Dan Moren went in-depth on the new Apple Maps experience in Boston. Dan bounced around various landmarks in Boston, critiquing Apple’s designs and decisions:
- Fenway Park
- South Station
- Quincy Market
- Boston City Hall
- Massachusetts State House
- TD Garden
- Museum of Fine Arts
- Copley Square
- Boston Public Library
- Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum
- Stata Center at MIT
For those unfamiliar, the “Detailed City Experience” in Apple Maps offers an immersive and interactive view of cities and landmarks. The feature combines things like high-resolution satellite imagery, 3D visualizations, and detailed terrain to improve the Apple Maps experience. In addition to the visual improvements, this also makes for significant improvements to navigation, walking directions, transit features, and cycling routes.
