March 31, 2021:-On Tuesday, Google announced several new features that will be in Google Maps. One such feature will help you find your way through indoor spaces such as airports, malls, and train stations using augmented reality.
The updated Live View AR feature, which overlays digital guides on top of the natural world to give directions as you see through your phone’s display, now works for indoor. For example, you’re in an airport and need to find an ATM. Your search for what you’re looking for in Google Maps and markers will guide you with arrows and other digital features.
Live View for Google Maps was launched for Android and iPhone in 2019, but it, in the beginning, it only provided these type of directions outdoors.
Anyone can access Live View in search in the Google maps on the phone, tapping “Directions,” and then, when available, tapping the “Live View” option beside “Start.”
Google said it’s first rolling out in some malls in Chicago, Long Island, Los Angeles, Newark, San Francisco, and Seattle. It will also launch in airports, malls, and transit stations in Tokyo and Zurich in the future months. Eventually, other cities and locations will support the feature too.
Google’s big maps update also includes different features that will roll out in the future months, such as air quality information, integration with grocery stores for curbside pickup, and an option to select the most eco-friendly route when driving.

In an industry as competitive and fast-paced as Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG), standing out from the crowd requires innovation and adaptability. The cracks in the CPG supply chain were exposed long before the global pandemic struck, but the events of the past year only exacerbated the weaknesses.
Supply chain leaders, including VPs, often find themselves making bets with unknown financial consequences. Having started with largely infeasible plans generated by deterministic “one-number” planning systems, compounded by unexpected supply or demand disruptions, they are forced into last-minute adjustments to meet operational and financial goals.
Unsurprisingly, today’s supply chain faces numerous issues, including sustainability, technology, global economic and political instability, talent management, and supply chain resilience. Advanced forecasting algorithms and predictive analytics are used in supply chain management to help organizations of all sizes make better decisions by providing insights into what’s going on in their business at any given moment and predicting future trends.
Ensuring the right products are in the right place and at the right time is critical for companies also dealing with supply chain constraints and a high degree of variability. Uncertainty has become the name of the game and the only way to effectively optimize inventory through continuous, data-driven assessments, planning, and decision-making.
Food Huggers, a consumer brand that designs products to reduce waste at home, may be in an enviable position now but before they found Extensiv Order Manager, managing booming orders and staying on top of inventory was a huge operational challenge. The business has inventory spread across multiple geographically distributed warehouses, with orders received via multiple sales channels, including Shopify storefronts and Amazon.
