Google Maps application on Mobile (Symbian and iPhone) now have detailed Pakistan Maps. They show all major buildings, Petrol Pumps, Hospitals etc. I was surprised to see that Maps are in quite detail. I can not find any of these maps in Pakistan. How Google has managed to do this?
Sadly they are not available in PC version of Google Maps nor they are in detail in Google Earth. All major cities are covered.
You can download google maps application for Symbian phone free of cost from google site. iPhone comes with built in maps application.
Naveed Posted in Comments:They launched a program called Mapmaker (http://www.google.com/mapmaker), kudos to desi geeks who put their efforts to pinpoint buildings, roads, restaurants and pan walas on the map.
The active contributors were then chosen to be moderators who would approve every location.
