Yandex Maps has done a great job of digitizing streets. As a result, highly detailed maps are now available for navigation in all cities with a population of one million or more in Russia.
During the trip, Yandex Maps will show users the roads as they are in reality: with lane markings, parking spaces and traffic islands. This will help you navigate the road network and understand complex interchanges or a new city.
The service team digitized more than 47,000 km of roads in the country, adding more than 140 types of markings to them - from lane boundaries to parking spaces. In addition, the application was taught to show the recommended trajectory of movement, taking into account lanes. This will help drivers change lanes in time before turning or making a U-turn.
Detailed maps of Russian cities are created using panorama reprojection technology. This is a tool that overlays panoramas on satellite images, taking perspective into account. It allows you to get an up-to-date image of roads and automate the process of map detailing.
Detailed maps of major Russian cities are available in the Yandex Maps and Yandex Navigator applications, including when connected to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
