Uma okuthile kuye kwaba okuphawulekayo I-google maps Ezinyangeni ezedlule akubanga khona ngqo ngenxa yendima yayo ku-Android, kodwa ngenxa yokuthi iyekile ukuba nayo ku-iOS ngemuva kokuthi i-Apple yenze isinqumo sokuyeka ukuba nezinsiza zemephu zenkampani yaseMountain View. Labo beCupertino benze umusa omkhulu kubo I-google maps, okwenza kube ngokoqobo, okungcono kakhulu. Manje, uma ibivele iyinhle, isithuthukise amamephu ayo, njengoba inemininingwane eminingi, sibonga iphrojekthi yeGround Truth.
Konke lokhu kuthuthukiswa kutholwe ngokusebenzisana nezinhlangano ezisemthethweni ezazinemininingwane emigwaqweni yedolobha ngalinye namadolobhana afinyelela emazweni ayi-10 nezifunda zase-Europe. Kakade kwezinye izingxenye zomhlaba, njengase-United States, eCanada, eNingizimu Afrika, noma e-Australia, babenalo lolu hlobo lwamabalazwe, kodwa manje sebefinyelele naseYurophu.
Azisekho kuphela ekubeni imephu evamile lapho sibona khona imigwaqo lapho izimoto zizungeza khona futhi okunye sikubona njengamabhulokhi ezakhiwo, manje izinga lemininingwane seliphakeme kakhulu. Isibonelo, kanti ngaphambi kokuthi amapaki abe yipholigoni elula yombala oluhlaza ezimweni ezinhle kakhulu, manje ngisho nezindlela ezingaphakathi kwezindawo eziluhlaza sezengeziwe. Futhi akuyona yodwa into ngalo mqondo, iphinde ihlukanise phakathi kwezindawo zamabhuloki angamabhilidi nalezo okuyizindlela ezidlulayo. Kulula ukucabanga izinzuzo zalolu hlobo lwezinguquko. Manje umzila ngeke usadinga ukuzungeza ipaki ukuze usiyise lapho siya khona, manje usuhlanganisa nezindlela ezingaphakathi kuyo esingahamba ngazo. Kungashiwo okufanayo nangemigwaqo yabahamba ngezinyawo, noma izikwele ezinkulu, ezifinyeleleka ohlelweni lwe-Google Amamephu. Kumephu engezansi ungabona ukuthi yiziphi izindawo zomhlaba amamephu analobu buchwepheshe asevele atholakala, afakwe ngaphakathi kwephrojekthi Iqiniso eliyisisekelo.
Ngaphandle kokungabaza, i-Apple yenza iphutha elikhulu kakhulu lapho iyeka ukusebenzisa uhlelo olufana nalolo lwe I-google maps futhi ngithemba ukuba nomkhiqizo ongcono esikhathini esifushane kangako. Kwakucace bha ukuthi inkampani enolwazi olubanzi kangaka emkhakheni ofana nalona yayizobheka noma yimuphi umkhiqizo owawumusha ngokuphelele, ikakhulukazi lapho kwakunabaningi ababejwayele ukuwusebenzisa ngaphambili.
