And this is where TravelByDrone has now stepped in, a map that gives a new dimension to the beauty of the world with drone footage.
While we are used to digital guides, GPS devices, directing us along the shortest, most optimal and fastest routes, Yahoo researchers have recently expanded their perception of maps, so that they can now also take us along the "most beautiful", "calm" and "lively" routes. The technology is currently limited to walking, but it won't be long before other forms of transport will adopt it.
