Google earth I’d like to be able to see updated pictures of not only cities but also the outdoors even if I was charged for this app I wouldn’t mind. And yes, even though I didn’t pay anything I still feel shortchanged. I now know that if I had a desktop I’d be able to look at the moon and mars so I feel really gypped now. Overall really great concept but what I’m gathering from other reviews, the app particularly for iPad is super low quality compared to others. It is absolutely impossible to tell one country/state from the next with the impossibly thin tan line separating everything that, oh yea, is the same color that is used for most of the landscape. Also, it would be really enjoyable (and easier on my old lady eyes) to be able to make borders bold or different colors or even cut out a region to view it individually. You can’t adjust any type of visual settings so if you zoom too far in on, say, China, you get a million different location names in English and Chinese and you can’t even see the land under all the text. I am terrible at geography and thought this would help me with a class I’m taking but I was mistaken. It’s like they took what they were in the process of developing years ago and just threw it up without even looking at it for a quick review. It takes a lot of disappointment for me to write reviews but this app is just so flat.
Ariel Seidman, Hivemapper’s CEO and co-founder, told TechCrunch there will only ever be 10 billion HONEY tokens in existence.Not Even Basic App Comforts (2020 iPad Pro)
When companies purchase map data from Hivemapper, that money is converted into tokens in the back end, which the system can then use to reward new or existing contributors with more tokens. As more roads are mapped and the map becomes more useful to end customers, their demand for tokens increases. Hivemapper rewards drivers and editors with its native token called HONEY. The company says, Mapping with dashcams means its data is continuously being refreshed. Its dashcams are equipped with a high-quality imager and precise GPS, and they go for $549. Hivemapper relies on individual contributors around the world to collect its street-view data. Now the startup aims to map 10 million unique road kilometers by early next year. It took Google from 2007 to 2019 to collect 16.1 million kilometers of unique road data. However, Hivemapper collected this data over the last three months. Hivemapper said it collected more than 1 million kilometers of unique street-level imagery. Hivemapper, the startup that puts dashcams on ride-hail and delivery vehicles to map the world, is getting a little closer to its goal of toppling the B2B mapping empire that Google has built reported by TechCrunch.
