News & Reviews:   Google Earth

Google has revealed that it will be merging its Google Maps and Waze teams under one department to cut costs and consolidate operations. Specifically, Waze, the mapping service acquired by Google way back in 2013 will be joining Google’s Geo organisation which also houses Google Earth and Google Street View.

Google Maps has partnered with K-Pop group BTS to showcase the members' favourite artworks from various cities. The new feature BTS x Street Galleries lets the fans explore the artworks through Street View, and each of them comes with a story told by the members for why they love the pieces.
