Bing Maps 3D

binglogo

Microsoft has recently posted an update for Bing Maps that will let you view map data in a three dimensional view to help you locate what your looking for:

Bing Maps 3D brings you another step closer to knowing "what it is like out there". You can search, browse, and organize local information viewed in three dimensions, just the way it exists in the real world. This enables you to more effectively find the data that is relevant to you, making Bing Maps more useful than ever. Even better — it’s just plain fun!

Supported Operating Systems: Windows Vista; Windows XP

  • Microsoft Internet Explorer 6, Windows Internet Explorer 7 or later, or Firefox 2.0 or later
  • 250 MB or more hard disk space
  • A 1 GHz processor (2.8 GHz or faster recommended)
  • 256 MB of system memory (1 GB recommended)
  • 32 MB video card (256 MB recommended) that supports Microsoft DirectX 9
  • A high speed or broadband Internet connection

Add realistic 3D capabilities to your online Bing Maps.
