Google announces a new professional mapping tool: the Google Maps Engine Pro.

Henceforth Google Maps lets businesses visualize their data on a map. This means, by importing data like addresses, names, office locations and sales leads from various file formats onto a map, businesses can edit, analyze and share their information in a simple format. Google Maps Engine Pro can be as easy to use as creating a document and it gives businesses an added productivity tool to help make decisions, organize
information, and plan operations using Google Maps.

Google Maps Engine Pro was built as an application on top of the Google Maps Engine platform. It provides businesses with cloud based technology to help them organize large datasets and create more complex maps.

As of now here are the new features to Google Maps Engine:

• Mobile App: The new mobile app allows individuals to access their maps created in Google Maps Engine, Maps Engine Pro and Maps Engine Lite.
• Connector Tools: It’s now more or less easy to migrate data from legacy systems, such as SAP, into Maps Engine using a connector tool that can be downloaded for free.
• The introductory account is an easy way to introduce Maps Engine to your organization’s geospatial infrastructure. The free account supports the product’s full platform capabilities, including API access, but limits the number of map queries per day.
