Maps As Historical Reference
- Mapping 1.0 is fixed, survey-based geography that established where things were using coordinates.
- It lasted millennia and prioritized universal reference points like latitude and longitude.
Interactive Navigation Became Universal
- Mapping 2.0 introduced interactive wayfinding and universal smartphone access for real-time navigation.
- Technologies like Google Maps, MapQuest, Waze and Street View made spatial accessibility mainstream.
Maps That Predict And Explain
- Mapping 3.0 adds temporal intelligence, prediction, and contextual interpretation to coordinates.
- It merges ML, AR, computer vision and multidimensional data to forecast and explain spatial change.
