A POLITICAL ECONOMIC CRITIQUE OF GOOGLE MAPS AND GOOGLE EARTH
Information, Communication and Society, 2010Using a political economic approach to communication, this paper critiques the Google company by examining Google Maps and Google Earth. Academic, media and daily lives discourses tend to ask three questions about Google. First, what other services does Google provide in addition to a search engine? Second, is Google an unconventional company?

Dijkstra's algorithm and Google maps
Proceedings of the 2014 ACM Southeast Regional Conference, 2014Dijkstra's Algorithm is known as the shortest path source. In this paper, we discuss this Algorithm and the applications that the algorithm has on the modern day. In this study, we provide a pseudo-code of the algorithm. It is the backbone of every navigation system. Google Maps is a typical application of this Algorithm.

Global mapping of artificial intelligence in Google and Google Scholar
Scientometrics, 2017The worldwide presence of AI needs to be quantified. This study proposes a descriptive approach and the use of multiple methods and data. An extensive electronic corpus of books was utilized to see the worldwide drift of intellectuals’ minds toward AI and identified related terms, their future trends, and convergence.

In this chapter, I consider how Google assembles its maps from many sources, using algorithms and, occasionally, a set of loose norms, to decide which information to foreground for which users. This process goes largely unnoticed, but glitches such as the 2016 erasure of Palestine from Google Maps can cause users to notice and question Google’s ...

Google Maps and Google Local Search
2016Google realized that location search, and mapping as an inseparable part of it, was arguably the most important and useful feature a search engine should have. Many of Google’s competitors were far ahead when “Search by Location” was launched as part of Google Labs in September 2003. However, trying to produce accurate results entirely based on scraped

ACM SIGGRAPH 2014 Talks, 2014
JavaScript is not typically associated with high performance rendering. This talk covers techniques that were used to bring the massive data set of Google Earth into a web browser using standard JavaScript and WebGL. The client has access to a 3d model of the entire world, an ever-growing data set stored in servers, and the client needs to fetch and ...
