Apple’s new iOS Maps service features turn-by-turn navigation, 3D maps and Siri integration among many other features. The most impressive-looking Maps feature debuted by Apple on Monday at WWDC was Flyover, which displays highly-detailed 3D models of famous cities around the world that can be accessed on the application. The new Maps also features Siri integration to deliver voice-enabled location-based information for drivers, turn-by-turn navigation to direct drivers to their location and a real-time traffic service that provides like incident reports using anonymous location data from iOS users to keep information up to date. The new version of Maps will be featured in iOS 6, the operating system that will power the next-generation iPhone and iPad.
