• Maps Google Maps brings changes and improvements to Spain: this is what you need to know

Summer in Spain is for many synonymous with the beach, swimming pool and vermouth, but when you have to spend it in a big city, you can only think of one thing: walking in the shade for as long as possible.

Here comes Shadowmap, a web app developed in order to find where the sun shines in the big cities around the world ... and therefore, also where the sun does not shine, where there is shade when you consider going for a walk or shopping or going for a walk.

Since its database is immense and generates a graph of the buildings and the shadow they cast, the service requires patience: it goes a little slow until it loads a city like Madrid or Barcelona.

But done that, its fantastic design shows you where the shadow is and where you can go to avoid the star king.

At the moment, it does not have an application that you can download on your mobile and you have to access it yes or yes through its web version, through Chrome or Safari or the browser you use.

The operation is simple.

In the upper right corner, you enter the city where you want the recreation to take place and you can also select the time.

And if walks are not your thing, this tool would also help you to know if the apartment you want to move to has enough hours of sunlight or if that sunset that you want to capture with your camera is better to photograph it in one place or another.

The basic functions of Shadowmap are free, but there is a paid version to be able to move the camera and check alternative dates.
