Amap's "sunscreen navigation" function was upgraded: 22 cities expanded to 100 cities, serving a total of more than 1.7 billion people

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens Wu Yanzu in South China for the delivery of clues! According to CTOnews.com news on July 11, a few days ago, Amap officially announced that it will upgrade the "sunscreen navigation" function, which will support voice broadcast awareness on shady roads during the itinerary. At the same time, the number of cities supported by sunscreen navigation will be expanded from 22 to 100. Since the launch of this function last year, it has served more than 1.7 billion people.

Specifically, the supported cities will cover the central and eastern parts of South China (Liangguang) and southern China (Fujian, Jiangsu and Zhejiang). New areas with frequent high temperature warning such as the northern part of the northwest (Urumqi and Turpan in Xinjiang) and the central and western part of Inner Mongolia (Hohhot) will be gradually opened in more cities in the future.

CTOnews.com noted that Amap's "sunscreen navigation" function was launched on August 25 last year to obtain the shadow coverage area projected onto the road in real time through remote sensing image information extraction, dynamic light and shadow tracking and high-definition 3D light and shadow computing, and intelligently recommend "shade route" for cycling and walking users. Users can experience this function in the corresponding city and get more routes in shady sections when they open Amap App to search for "sunscreen navigation".
