Under their arrangement, the National Anthropology and History Institute (INAH) will provide photographs, videos and other information to Google Mexico. INAH will also provide maps and floor plans for its museums, archeological areas and historical monuments.
Google Maps will offer visitors a tour guide to take them to different cultural destinations in Mexico.

In Mexico, some 27 million people or 85 percent of Mexico's Internet population, use Google's tools.
