Данные карты
Уличная сеть и другие векторные данные, которые позже использовались в Yahoo! Карты, были получены из HERE и включают в себя ряд общедоступных источников данных. Подробные данные об уличной сети в настоящее время доступны для Соединенных Штатов, Канады, Пуэрто-Рико, Виргинских островов и большинства стран Европы. Границы стран, города и водные объекты картографированы для остального мира. Спутниковые снимки с низким разрешением доступны по всему миру. Снимки с разрешением 1–2 метра доступны для большей части континентальных Соединенных Штатов и отдельных городов по всему миру.
The street network and other vector data Yahoo! Maps used later on was from HERE, and includes a number of public data sources. Detailed street network data is currently available for the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and most European countries. Country borders, cities, and water bodies are mapped for the rest of the world. Low resolution satellite imagery is available worldwide. 1–2 meter resolution is available for most of the contiguous United States and select cities worldwide.
История
Yahoo! Карты были впервые запущены примерно в 1998 году. Данные предоставляла компания Vicinity Corporation. В ноябре 2005 года была выпущена новая версия на основе Adobe Flash под названием Yahoo! Local Maps в бета-версии. В апреле 2006 года были добавлены аэро- и спутниковые снимки. 16 мая 2007 года Yahoo! представил новый стиль карт, разработанный картографической компанией Cartifact. Cartifact также поставляла данные и изображения, включая рельеф с затенением, отображающий особенности земной поверхности, и цветовую кодировку земной поверхности, указывающую на основные экологические зоны. До мая 2007 года карты Индии были добавлены на сайт http://in.search.yahoo.com, представляющий собой интерфейс к Yahoo! Картам, не использующий Flash. Помимо достаточно подробного покрытия Индии (недоступного через http://search.yahoo.com), сайт также позволял пользователям просматривать и искать информацию в Yahoo!. В мае 2010 года Yahoo! заключил соглашение с Nokia, в соответствии с которым картографический сервис Nokia (позже известный как Here) должен был обеспечивать работу Yahoo! Карт. Это вступило в силу в октябре 2011 года. В 2014 году был выпущен мобильный сайт Yahoo! Карт. 4 июня 2015 года Yahoo! объявила о закрытии Yahoo! Карт вместе с Yahoo! Pipes в конце месяца.
Yahoo! Maps originally launched circa 1998. The data was provided by Vicinity Corporation. A new Adobe Flash based version called Yahoo! Local Maps was released in Beta in November 2005. In April 2006, aerial and satellite views were added. On May 16, 2007, Yahoo! released a new map style designed by the cartography company Cartifact. Data and imagery were also supplied by Cartifact, including shaded relief showing land surface features and land cover coloring indicating major environmental zones. At some point before May 2007 maps of India were added to http://in. search. yahoo. com which is a non Flash interface to Yahoo Maps. In addition to reasonably detailed Indian coverage (not available through http://search. yahoo. com), the site also allows a user to browse/search Yahoo!. In May 2010, Yahoo! reached a deal with Nokia whereby Nokia's mapping service (later known as Here) would power Yahoo! Maps. This came into effect in October 2011. In 2014, a mobile site for Yahoo! Maps was released. On June 4, 2015, Yahoo! announced that Yahoo! Maps would be shut down, along with Yahoo! Pipes, at the end of the month.

Find On The Map: A local search by business name or category can be typed into the "Find On The Map" box to locate it in the current map view. A list of clickable point of interest categories is also available. The results can be further refined by user rating, or related category. Driving Directions: Driving directions can be displayed on a map or in printable form, with optional turn by turn maps, or as simple text. Links to driving directions can be e mailed, and text directions sent to mobile phones. Multi point driving directions: Multiple addresses can be entered and manually reordered for complex driving directions. Draggable maps: The map view can be manipulated by dragging it with the mouse or tapping the arrow keys. Zoom level can be controlled via the mouse scroll wheel, "Page Up"/"Page Down" keys, or the map's zoom bar. Widgets: A number of widgets over the map include a navigator widget, map type (map, satellite & hybrid) controller and a zoom level control. Satellite Imagery: Labelled (hybrid) and unlabelled satellite imagery is available worldwide. Overview map: Collapsible overview map provides context, with draggable grey area controlling the main map view. International Coverage: Outside the US and Canada, Yahoo! Maps Beta can recognize city, province, and country names, and provide a small scale map or satellite views. Right click to set waypoint: an origin, destination, or midpoint can be set by right clicking on the desired location on the map. Draggable markers: Any marker can be dragged to the 'Get Map' text entry area to add that location to a route.
Спутниковые снимки: Доступны спутниковые снимки с подписями (гибридные) и без них по всему миру.

Разработчик API
До декабря 2011 года разработчики могли встраивать Yahoo! Карты в свои веб-страницы (для создания маш-апов) через API разработчика Yahoo! Карты. API Yahoo! Карты были представлены в трех основных вариантах:
Until December 2011, developers could embed Yahoo! Maps into their own web pages (to create a mashup) through the Yahoo! Maps Developer APIs. The Yahoo! Maps APIs came in three basic flavors:
Flash API, использующий платформу Adobe Flash. Доступны были три версии, позволяющие разработчикам писать на JavaScript, ActionScript или Adobe Flex 1.5. Ajax API, предназначенный для интерактивных карт, использующих возможности веб-браузеров без плагина Flash. Приложения Ajax разрабатываются на JavaScript. "Простой" API, по сути, формат данных XML, расширение GeoRSS, для отображения данных о достопримечательностях на карте Yahoo!. Flash и Ajax API также поддерживали отображение данных в формате GeoRSS. Yahoo! предлагал ряд низкоуровневых API для поддержки карт, включая геокодирование, получение изображения карты, поиск местных предприятий и получение информации о дорожном движении. Другие сервисы Yahoo!, такие как Flickr и Upcoming.org, предоставляли свой контент через веб-сервисы, что открывало интересные возможности для создания маш-апов.
The Flash APIs, which used the Adobe Flash platform. Three variations, allowing the developer to write in JavaScript, ActionScript, or Adobe Flex 1.5, were available. The Ajax API , for interactive maps that use capabilities inherent in web browsers, without using the Flash plug in. Ajax applications are written in JavaScript. The "Simple" API , basically an XML data format, an extension of GeoRSS, for displaying point of interest data on top of Yahoo! 's main map site. The Flash and Ajax APIs also supported display of GeoRSS formatted data. Yahoo! offered a number of low level APIs to support maps, for geocoding, getting a map image, searching for a local business, or retrieving traffic information. Some other Yahoo! services, such as Flickr and Upcoming. org, have their content available through web services, with interesting potential for mashups.
