A small lifehack – in many cases – especially for tourists – it’s advisable to switch to Google Earth for exploring the surrounding area. Earth has long been operational on Chrome and doesn’t require any software installation. It makes viewing photos in context to their location easier, and this helps to decide whether to go somewhere or not. Besides, Google displays objects in 3D in some incredible way – ordinary houses, and even amusement parks are three-dimensional, which is a very big plus. And there, you can also activate many other layers.
Google does not only capture terrain with vehicles but also from their planes, and then combines all data to create a depth map and subsequently a 3D map. This video explains how it works https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suo_aUTUpps
