Yesterday, Google introduced a new technology called “StreetView.” It allows you to see a panoramic view of any street that you want, from any location that you want! It allows you to:
- View street level photographs (select cities)
- Take virtual walks; pan, rotate and zoom
- Explore cityscapes, landmarks, points of interest
- Find shops, restaurants, parks, hotels and more
Although there aren’t many cities supported *yet*, more will be on the way. Brilliant work. See it here.
Oh, and in-case you were wondering how the data was collected, check out the company behind the technology, immersivemedia.com.
