Google on Thursday announced a new Google Maps-related online product that should help both companies and regular consumers enjoy a better maps experience. The Google Maps Gallery will offer let governments, business and non-profits create specialized maps using Google’s Google Maps Engine and share them online. The new maps will appear in search results and offer different experiences than Google’s own Maps service. The new feature comes just after a recent major Google Maps update that added several exciting new features. With Maps Gallery, the institutions that will create new maps using Google’s tools will be in complete control over the content that appears in their maps, as they’ll be able to customize the branding, styling and licensing of their maps.
