I came to know about MapmyIndia from Webyantra and it was quite impressive. Here’s the writeup.
But, I was not able to use the feature of getting Directions in Chennai. Maybe it is yet to be implemented. But, I was able to get to much finer details using Wikimapia.
Anyway, the maps looks impressive. Also, the webyantra writeup says that the maps have been created by MMI’s own surveryors. I wonder why they didn’t try to tie up with someone like Eicher Maps to get the details of the maps and then build the interface on top of that.

This is an Indian company’s initiative at creating an internet map site that will come up
and do as much as Google and Mapquest has done. We’re also adding an Indian twist to the
things we do. Check out this concept called ‘eLocation’ MapmyIndia has introduced.
eLocation allows you to get maps and directions to a peron’s place, and the cool thing is
that it gives you the directions in the words of that person (take a left after you see a
panwallah, go inside that gate…u know, how people explani directions in India).
Search for this sample elocation and you’ll see what I mean. The id is: mapmyindia
Looking forward to your comments on the blog or through mail (my email address is:

Thanks and hope you can enjoy India in much much more detail =)
