#maps ocean

Looks like Google Maps is not satisfied in covering just every piece of land on Earth and has decided to go under the sea as well with Maps Ocean, allowing users to explore living coral reefs around the world without getting their feet wet. Maps Ocean is an addition to Google Maps which shows underwater panoramic images of six of the ocean's most incredible living coral reefs, including the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, the Molokini crater in Maui, Hawaii and the marine reserve in Apo Island in Dauin, Philippines. All current Nokia Maps features are still included but with the addition of other cool stuff like: Collections - allows you to save locations to your Nokia account and sync them across your devices so you can view them over the web or on your smartphone. 3D Maps - as the name suggests, the feature gives you a 3D view of major locations around the world. The data is provided by C3 Technologies - the same company that supplies data to the Flyover feature of Apple iOS 6's Maps. Map Creator - allows you to edit roads, paths and traffic information which are then added to the maps so it can be viewed by others.
