I drove a car with Google Maps and Waze Open at the same time: It's incredible how different the two Google Navigators are

I've used Google Maps and Waze for years while driving, and I sometimes open both apps at the same time to get the best out of both.I took advantage of the different features of each app.On a trip from Pamplona to Madrid, I discovered how Waze sent me one way and Google Maps sent me the other when I was about 100 kilometers from my destination and stuck in traffic.

Because Yes, Google maps and flying, both are getting old, from where the previous opinion company found the Israeli committee more than 10 years ago.Also, why don't they say: They support each other.It wouldn't be the first time I got a public notice on Google Maps.Or maps inspired by these works.But Google maps and has its differences and it is not in some cases, the presence of the first person or having a high opinion: even in the heart.

Google Maps and WAze have different navigation algorithms.In fact, it would not be the first time that I almost, simple and simple, ending on the goat way by Trust Waze, because one of his goal is to get there faster.

With Google Maps and Waze you can take different routes

Although sometimes I use them together, when I use ize or Google Maps, I know in my mind: if I'm looking for a good place to walk and I'm going to a hotel, restaurant, etc., I'll use the map there.If I find myself on a road with heavy traffic and chaos, such as when I go to tendle tendis or enter Madrid, I use Waze.Its warnings for accidents, police, traffic jams and other events are not included.

But as I mentioned in the introduction, one day I noticed this difference in the proposed itineraries, and it was not the first time.In the north of Madrid I already had Waze take me through small roads and side streets, with fewer traffic lights but more turns.And this got me thinking: How do Google Maps and Waze determine the best route?

Although "Big G" does not go into depth in explaining the algorithms, it does provide details on an algorithm called "a*" and presents the shortest paths called "Taking real-time math".

Google Maps provides the amount of data, but considering the points first, systematically wants to estimate everything that is connected to the food point for each option. That is, with the points, we first visit the last point, from where we visit for our coffee, and choose our destination. If a shorter route is found to a location that has been reached by another route, the calculation is relicaled (adjustment for long distances can be registered in time).

The navigation algorithm of the map is based on the Dijkstra and then integrates the AI ​​for the A * Algorithm.So when looking at the graphics, it is considered that on the arm, the distance traveled from the beginning and, on the other hand, an estimate of what is left to get there.So when A * evaluates where to go, it calculates what is growing and what is still the most successful path.Promote the use of inheritance.

The pinch of salt in this recipe is that it involves the integration of real-time data collected by Users' GPS signals, historical traffic patterns, official road data and AI predictions based on current trends.

The attack relies on real-time user reports and dynamic route optimization.Therefore, while Google Maps is drawn from stable and historical data, the bar relies on live updates.

Really.Updating the collaboration in real time is the key to the operation.So if the user reports a traffic jam, police presence or danger, this information is processed and displayed on the route within minutes.In this way, it dynamically knows, graphics, changes the weight of the road until it reaches the destination based on the new report.In fact, it's similar to choosing the shortest route in Google Maps with instant updates, but Waze also sets priorities based on the latest conditions.In this sense, Waze is more aggressive in playing the route on the fly in the face of sudden, sometimes unusual hotkey changes that would avoid the map.

In short, although Google Maps and Waze have a similar foundation, each prioritizes its revisions and gives more weight to different factors.Thus, while Maps talks about stability and reliability, Waze refers to agility in handling changing situations, giving more weight to user data.In this sense, Waze is ideal for fast-changing environments such as traffic jams.Google Maps, on the other hand, is static and places more emphasis on history.
