Alps Mapping Tweaks Your Online Average Map

Alps Mapping, in collaboration with the Nagoya Institute of Technology, came up with a very interesting feature for online mapping... a fish-eye zoom which doesn't interrupt road and rail track continuity.

I just played a little with this feature and I admit it's pretty nice, but lacks basic features like a map zoom.

Be sure to test this item, I really like the concept.

I was a little scared when I first saw the map... It looked like a meteor had struck Japan and left a giant crater...

then I read the title... everything\'s okay now...
