Abstract
Google Maps is a web mapping and consumer supported application developed by Google which provides satellite view, street maps with view, route planning with real time traffic conditions from user’s source to destination via foot, car, beta version of air and public transport. In addition, Google Maps provides road layouts, state or country’s boundaries, geographic features, restaurant views and so on. Despite offering enough facilities to its users, the application circumscribes its functionalities when it comes to showing the direction of rivers, canals, and so on. As per our knowledge, Google maps does not have the features of water path showing as substitute of roads to reach a desired destination easily which could save time and cost at the same time it will minimize the distance by suggesting waterway with water vehicles. Adding a water path in Google map will introduce a new dimension in this application: alternative shortest path to the user, providing reliable directions to reach one’s destination with shortest time. Moreover this new proposal of adding waterways in the google map will enable the features of shortest available water path with vehicles in riverine places especially the research-observed areas Barishal and Dhaka. This paper will inspect how adding the new feature of water path in Google map can facilitate future possibilities to make this virtual application more effective and user friendly with realistic and convenient facilities.
