Google Street View

Rare card · No. 42658

Google Street View is a technology featured in Google Maps and Google Earth that provides interactive panoramas from positions along many streets in the world. Google Street View displays street-level imagery of stitched VR photographs. Most photography is captured by specially equipped cars, but other means have been used, including over- and underwater vehicles, as well as on foot. First launched in 2007 in several cities in the United States, Street View has since expanded to include all of the country's major and minor cities, as well as the cities and rural areas of many other countries worldwide. As of 2017, Street View had coverage in 83 countries. Street View has been used for research in fields like urban analytics and geographic information science, as well as in artistic work.
