We found that Google knows very little about you, and sometimes that is good. Especially when Google plows some of that information back to the new opportunities.
Yesterday my colleague Tom Krazit explore new functions, which is part of the traffic reports on Google Maps, including how Google treats the issue of privacy characteristic of information because it reflects the user, providing some of its more granular traffic reporting. In addition to displaying traffic information on major highways, Google will display it on the highways, class of travel, which represents the next level down in terms of motor activity. (This may include more high-speed road traffic facades, for example.)
Club work suck anonymous data from people using the feature “My Location” on Google Maps for mobile. Google sends itself (and the court function was sending itself) anonymous information behind the scenes, when you turn on the feature “My Location” on your mobile phone. Part of this data is returned to the headquarters of Google includes your location and velocity.
While the enhanced map movement, which emerged from the data driver provides another level of service, Google is not the first to make mobile data in local traffic. Israel launched called Waze more hyperlocal ambitions. Waze also reports, highways and streets, and some even less than the arterial streets. In fact, you can use Waze drivers mobile phone data in conjunction with the motion of the car to create a fairly accurate map of the city. In addition, you can actively report accidents and other incidents. Before leaving, Waze can create a real-time route, which is more active than Google Maps traffic.
Although Waze has bright ideas, it has no weight. As online social networks, they must build its user base to build its database. Google, on the other hand, has a strong influence in the real world of users who already have a user account names and passwords. It also established roads and highways. If Google is smart, she not only turn their gaze to an even smaller alleys, as well as take many interactive features, such companies as Waze develops.
