Google Maps still way ahead of Apple Maps in details and coverage, study finds

Google's Maps app and the data behind it have a head start of six years before Apple Maps, and, although Apple's mapping data is improving compared to the early days of its launch, it is still behind Google Maps, an in-depth study by Justin O’Beirne found. The difference is most pronounced in the level of details that Google shows, down to buildings' HVAC vents, but also the coverage of remote areas.
