Google maps will report live on natural disasters

Google Maps continues with its renovation, introducing a multitude of new functions. The new function that makes its entry into the application is the forecast of natural disasters. It is something that they are already testing and that is launched very soon for all users in the app. The idea is to be able to use the live reports that are in the app to report on hurricanes, floods, earthquakes or other disasters.

It is a feature based on distress alerts, which helps prevent users from becoming involved in these problems.

New function in the app

In this way, users who have Google Maps will be able to keep fully informed of complex and dangerous weather situations such as hurricanes, earthquakes or floods. They are problems that affect millions of people around the world. Therefore, having the app with these live announcements can be a good help, to avoid going to that place or leaving before something happens.

The feature will not be available worldwide, at least not yet. The company's plans are for it to expand worldwide, but they did not want to give dates for its expansion. So it is a matter of waiting.

Although it is a function that takes on special relevance in certain areas, where these types of disasters tend to occur more frequently. But we hope to know more about how Google Maps is going to carry out the deployment of it.
