Low-level design (LLD) for Google Maps:
Geospatial data: Google Maps will need to store and manage large amounts of geospatial data, including information about roads, landmarks, and businesses. This will likely involve creating a database or data structure to store this information, as well as algorithms to process and index the data.
Map rendering: Google Maps will need to render the map and display it to the user. This will involve implementing algorithms to project the geospatial data onto a 2D map and generate the necessary graphics and styling to display the map.
Location services: Google Maps will need to determine the user's location and provide directions and other location-based services. This will involve integrating with location APIs and implementing algorithms to determine the user's location and generate directions.
Search and discovery: Google Maps will need to allow users to search for places and businesses, and provide recommendations and reviews for nearby points of interest. This will involve implementing search algorithms and integrating with third-party APIs to provide the necessary data.
User accounts and authentication: Google Maps will need to allow users to create accounts, log in, and log out. We will also need to implement measures to ensure the security of user accounts, such as password hashing and potentially two-factor authentication.
User interface: Finally, Google Maps will need to design the user interface for the service, including the layout, navigation, and any necessary graphics or styling. This will involve creating wireframes and mockups, as well as implementing the front-end code to bring the design to life.
