Map mode
• Map mode This is the default view and displays a map, complete with names
of streets, rivers, lakes, mountains, parks, and boundaries.
• Satellite mode Google Maps uses the same satellite data as Google Earth™.
Satellite images are not real-time. Google Earth acquires the best imagery
available, most of which is approximately one to three years old.
• Traffic mode (available only in selected areas) Real-time traffic conditions
are displayed over roads as color-coded lines. Each color represents how fast
the traffic is moving.
