C3 Google Maps on Steroids: Realistic 3D City Models
Apple takes on Google Earth – with previously classified military tech (Apple bought the company). Welcome to the world of tomorrow! Today. Technology has advanced so much that C3 Technologies can now provide photo-realistic 3D city visualizations. They dither on about social and commercial implications, but we all know the one commercial implication where it could have boner-type connotations: video games.

First Apple acquired Siri and deprived Android and BB from getting this amazing AI app, and now they have acquired C3 maps, which was one of the best mapping app waiting to come to all mobile platforms – This acquisition thing sucks..

I cant see why this displacement-approach is not used by googles map service – its obviously much faster to render while providing a much better terrain-approximation?
