Everyone knew of Google maps and Yahoo maps, the two popular web mapping and location services. Always web maps are very useful for locating the businesses and finding out directions across numerous countries around the world.

Today we have an adobe air based application for viewing both Google maps and Yahoo maps side by side that too from your desktop. Just type in the address you want to find in maps and locate them easily.

Roadfinder combines two of the most popular online maps, Yahoo! Maps and Google Maps, into a single application from your Windows desktop. Search for an address by typing it in or dragging it from the desktop.
There is close collaboration between these two maps as moving or zooming on either map effects the other.

With RoadFinder you can search maps for physical directions anywhere in the world, view maps or real satelite images. Its an fantastic geo-location tool.

I like using Google Maps and Bing Maps and compare them. I think they are quite similar and Google seems to be marginally better. Never tried out Yahoo Maps and this tool will be great to compare them …
