On January 7, Alibaba's AutoNavi officially launched the "AutoNavi Street Scan Ranking 2026," and simultaneously introduced a major feature based on its self-developed world model - "Flight Street View." The release of this technology marks a leap in the evolution of map navigation from flat digitalization to high-fidelity, continuous dynamic real-world rendering.
The core of the "Flight Street View" feature lies in achieving high-precision visual reconstruction through an AI world model. Unlike traditional static street view images, this feature first realizes a continuous dynamic flying perspective. Before actual travel, users can open "air roaming" on their mobile screens to immerse themselves in previewing the route to the destination. In addition, this technology clearly presents details of store signs and the real environment inside the store, providing users with a visual perception almost equivalent to an on-site visit, greatly reducing decision-making costs.
For merchants, this feature also holds revolutionary significance. Through "Flight Street View," the characteristics of the store can be comprehensively displayed in a more expressive dynamic form, becoming a new window for merchants' digital marketing.
With the release of the AutoNavi Street Scan Ranking 2026, AutoNavi is further breaking the boundaries between virtual maps and the physical world by using its self-developed world model, building a more intuitive and intelligent digital life connection platform for users and merchants.
