Nokia recently launched Nokia Maps 3D beta silently which is powered by WebGL graphics library, which means we don't need to install any kinda' plugin to our browser to experience the awesome Nokia 3D maps service.



The service seems to be very similar to the popular Google earth. The service is currently in beta stage and therefore is limited to a few number of cities around the globe.
