Mapping software that can give directions the way human navigator would.
When I’m driving in my own city, my mapping software should be intelligent enough to know that I am aware of most of the roads; it can track me.
I don’t need to hear
“Keep straight on Highway 101 West signs for Highway 101 West for 300m, then take exit 104 South signs for Highway 104 South, take exit 104A South signs for 104 South, merge onto Highway 104 South signs for 104 South. Go straight on Highway 104 South for 400m then take the left lane and turn left on route 40 Eastbound signs for route 40. Boodle-ding you are on the correct route. In 200m turn left onto route 40 Eastbound signs for route 40 Eastbound. Turn left onto route 40 Eastbound signs for route 40 Eastbound.”
… When what is needed in a realistic sense is the following:
“In 300m take the exit to 104 Southbound then after 400 m, turn left at the first set of lights onto route 40”
