Vizzion, Inc. has announced that its popular service “Traffic Vizzion” (pronounced “vision”), which enables drivers to see images from thousands of traffic cameras directly on their Windows Mobile device, has now been expanded to include some exciting new mapping features.

A driver using Traffic Vizzion can now download high quality Yahoo! maps for their region and explore the maps using pan and zoom features. The maps can be updated directly from the service, so it’s easy to keep maps up to date. If you have a built-in or external GPS, Traffic Vizzion will display your precise location on the map, so if you take a wrong turn or have to detour around traffic, it’s easy to get back on track.

The locations of nearby traffic cameras are displayed on the map, and individual cameras can be easily selected for viewing. The map makes it easier than ever to pull up camera images along your route, spot traffic congestion or poor road conditions well in advance, and give you a chance to take a different route. Utilized on a regular basis, Traffic Vizzion can result in considerable savings in time, fuel and frustration.

Drivers with a GPS can also make use of the unique “Watch Road Ahead” feature in Traffic Vizzion. With access to the position and heading information from the GPS, Traffic Vizzion uses Patent Pending technology to automatically show images from cameras several miles up ahead, giving the driver enough warning to get off the highway at the exit preceding a traffic jam. It’s like having your own personal traffic reporter!

Traffic Vizzion is now available in over 80 major cities across North America and the UK. Traffic Vizzion is targeted at commuters, business travelers, long-haul drivers, delivery drivers, vacationers, or anyone else who needs to view maps or see road conditions in advance.

For a free trial of the software, go to the “Free Trial” page at www.vizzion.com.
