/24-7PressRelease/ - TOKYO, JAPAN, March 08, 2008 - Mapeer is a social map service powered by Google Maps application programming interface (API). The web site allows users to share and communicate ideas with each other on a global stage. You can share your specific city knowledge, information on outdoor attractions, tourist information and many other topics. Users can compile the position, the area, and the route jointly and release the information online. Images, videos and comments can be posted to enhance the directions, destination or overall information. There is a function to measure the distances or area of a map.
