Free to all advertisers, the next generation Map feature allows end users to not only get driving directions and basic map view, but also allows them to zoom in for closer local views. With an easy-to-use dashboard navigation and mini map showing the context of your view, the end user can choose from four different view settings:

• Road: This is a typical street map illustrating roads, highways, and landmarks, etc.
• Aerial: This is a combination of satellite photographs, plus photographs taken from airplanes.
• Bird's Eyes: This offers high-resolution. Low-angle photographs taken from small aircrafts (limited availability at this time).
• Hybrid: This view enhances aerial imagery with road overlays.

Customer can customize the start location and in one click, reverse directions for the return route. Additionally, this feature has Microsoft's new roof-top geocoding, a new traffic indicator that is continuously updated, and a revert function to reset the map to the original view.
