Google maps versus Nokia's OVI maps
I have started looking up Gooooo for comparisons.
In a quick search I found that Google maps support "Street views" which Nokia's OVI maps don't have. But this is limited to few western countries only. I want to know if either of them provide much more in depth detail w.r.t the streets, roads and lanes as compared to other. Any enlightenments? or any links where this comparison is shown without bias? |
I use Google Maps on the PC and Ovi Maps on my Nokia - for my uses they are both identical. I forget whether Ovi gets to the full level of detail that Google does, I certainly use the top down satellite view quite often, but how often does anyone need to use the view that shows how you would walk down a street?

Now I just compared the National highway 1 in India on both the maps. And the results are clear. But still, there is not much text on the Google streets too. |
Yeah, Ovi maps are far less detailed. That said, I am certain that the view on my phone is superior to the version shown on the PC.

Thanks SigTerm, for us the detailed view of streets is more important than anything else.
But I am looking for a way by which Google maps can be cached too. and the damn QtMobility doesn't support anything else than OVI maps. |
