ESL Podcast 1194 – Using a Map Program 


Caroline: I just got an email from Sandra with her new address. I wish I knew what kind of neighborhood our daughter is living in. 


Bryce: Let’s find out. I’ll type in her address on this map program. 


Caroline: That will just tell us where she’s living within the city, not what kind of neighborhood it is. 


Bryce: Just wait. I can show you the street view of her apartment and you can see what her building looks like. 


Caroline: Wow, that’s amazing, but doesn’t the building look a little run-down? 


Bryce: That’s what you get with high-resolution images. You see every detail. You can navigate 1 around and see a panoramic 2 view of her street. 


Caroline: Oh, that doesn’t look very clean or safe. 


Bryce: Let me show you an aerial 3 view. The satellite view will give you a better idea of the entire area. 


Caroline: Is that an airport nearby and are those factories? What will this other view show us? 


Bryce: That provides real-time traffic information and allows for route planning. It looks like she lives on a highly congested street. Hey, where are you going? 


Caroline: I’m going to visit our daughter. I want to see for myself what kind of hovel she’s living in!
