The main features of Google Maps are finding directions, looking at streets, and plotting routes. One can find directions from point A to point B, or A to B to C etcetera for car, bus, walking, or biking. One can also zoom in and out to get a view of the surrounding area, and can zoom all the way in to enter Street View, which allows one to look at the immediate area to search for landmarks.
