If you’re planning to head out to the UK sometime to explore a bit, it’s never been a better time thanks to the Google Maps Floorplan ability. Just integrated into its system, the classic Google Maps now has the ability to go beyond just seeing the exterior of the building and you can now fully understand the blueprint and figure out where to go before arrival.
Making travel and new places easier than ever—don’t you wish you had this when you inevitably got lost in the building on the way to a job interview?—the Google Maps Floorplan app allows you to check out the floorplans for yourself and upload your own through the Google website to contribute to the movement.
