Apple drivers traveled Nevada for maps update

Apple Maps is getting an update on Nevada’s layout.

In a post on its website, Apple said the company drove around parts of England, France, Italy and the U.S. collecting data to improve Apple Maps.

Between April 24 and this past Sunday, it is possible you may have shared the road with Apple drivers in Carson City, Clark County, Douglas County, Lyon County, Nye County, Storey County and Washoe County. The tech giant will do another round in Nevada between May 22 and June 4.

Some of the data collected will be published in future Apple Maps updates, the company said.

“We will blur faces and license plates on collected images prior to publication.”

An Apple spokesman did not return a request for comment.
