Google Maps provides a parking search feature
Recently, Google Maps has introduced a tool to help users find parking. Anyone who goes inside or into the city knows that finding a parking space is a problem. Moreover, if you are driving into a place where you are not on the road, it is really hard to find a reasonable parking position. Understanding the user's difficulties, Google Maps has launched this feature to help users solve problems.
Google has launched this parking assistance feature in the United States in January this year in many cities. Currently, it has been deployed to 25 cities outside the United States, namely Alicante, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Barcelona, Cologne, Darmstadt, Dusseldorf, London, Madrid, Malaga, Manchester, Milan, Montreal, Moscow, Munich, Paris, Prague, Rio de Janeiro, Rome, Sao Paulo, Stockholm, Stuttgart, Toronto, Valencia and Vancouver.
