Immersive View is a new feature in Google Maps that lets you see a place in 3D before you go there. It uses AI and computer vision to combine many pictures of a place into a realistic model. You can move around the model and see things like the weather, traffic, and how busy a place is. You can also see how a place looks at different times of the day. This can help you plan your trip or explore a new area.
Immersive View is available in some cities like London, Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco and Tokyo. Google plans to add more cities soon. To use Immersive View, you need to open Google Maps on your phone or computer and search for a place. Then you can tap on the Immersive View button to see the 3D model of the place.
