Google Launches Indoor Maps In Australia

Google has expanded its Indoor Maps range to include over 200 locations across NSW and Victoria. Users can access detailed floor plans of large public buildings by zooming into the location on their tablet or smartphone.

The maps will also automatically update themselves when you move up or down a level in a building with multiple floors — via redwolf.newsvine.com
