Apple keeps improving iOS 6 Maps.

Apple keeps improving iOS 6 Maps as promised while detractors keep attacking on the issue.

Apple should have mentioned in the beginning that iOS 6 Maps is a work in progress. Just like a series, they’ll fix each episodes in post. As higher quality aerial photos and Digital Elevation Maps are added and processed, iOS 6 Maps 3D view will be improved. The same goes with the navigation feature of iOS 6 Maps.

Comparisons below.
