Just to prove a point at how good their maps are Google has updated their UK Maps with improved Street View imagery in several major UK cities, while adding areas previously unchartered by its cameras.

The cities London, Cardiff, Manchester and Glasgow have been re-traced. Impressive. In addition landscape in parts of East Anglia, South Wales and the Scottish Coastline have been photographed the first time.

Bulgaria for the first time has been added and 200 new towns and cities in Russia are also included.

Google Maps is so far ahead of everyone else.
