Bing Maps gets taxi fare calculator

This item was filled under [ Bing ]

How much will it cost to grab a cab from my apartment to a favorite seafood restaurant? How about from my friend’s hotel to another friend’s apartment? Thanks to a new submission to the King of Bing Maps competition, users can calculate taxi fare between any two destinations within major metropolitan areas on Bing Maps. In our testing, the feature works quite well. When you load the app in Bing Maps, you have to first choose a region and then get directions between two addresses. Since cabs (and fares) are usually regulated by the cities in which they operate, as they are here in Chicago, it’s not hard for Bing to get in the general ballpark of what you can expect to pay. I commonly take a cab between two specific addresses (hey, there are adult beverages involved and no nearby L stops at the destination), so I ran a test on the new tool. The result was just about what I typically pay, not counting tip. Not only can this feature be useful for locals, it would also be appreciated by out-of-town visitors who want to know what to expect when checking out a new city. Other nominations for the King of Bing Maps are outlined on the Bing blog, but Taxi Fare Calculator is definitely the most useful of the bunch.

Limitations The “Rupee.ttf” font is necessary to view the currency symbol. So as long as the new symbol is not encoded in to unicode font by default, we cant use the symbol universally.

 Update - 9pm, July 16, 2010

 Some people reported that they are facing a problem to select font from the drop down list of MS Office and similar applications. This is because we haven’t included glyphs for letters from A to Z. We are serious about copyright issues. Most of the fonts have complex copyright terms.

 We have a solution and released the version 2.0 of the Rupee font. This one contains all the glyphs(letters) and is based on BitstreamVera
