Help to visualize maps

The maps that are shown in this Web are offered free by Google. They serve to locate us the panoramas and this way to give a complete expereriencia to the virtual trip.

In the maps they are shown a series of points of red color that indicate the location of interest information, based on the level in which we are, the red points will indicate the location of panoramas or the location of other maps with greater detail. For example in a map of a province we can have one or several red points:

In this case when pressing on a red point a window will be opened on the point that will indicate a route to us:

Pressing on the content of this small window, we will enter another map, this case we will see the map of a route:

Within a trip map, if we press on a red point, a small window will be opened, in which it appears a name and a photo, pressing on them we can reach the panorama:

Within all the maps there is a series of red dots that allow to reach other panoramas:

Zoom In: To increase the detail of the map

Zoom Out: To reduce the detail of the map

Map: To visualize a flat map (more details of the streets)

Photo: Aerial photo or of satellite

Both: Over the aerial photo some details of streets and highways are displayed

In order to change the zone visualized in a map it is only necessary to press on it and drag in the desired direction.
