Since its US Launch in 2007, Google Street View has captured photographs and imaginations aplenty, offering users 360 degree panoramas of global sites both renowned and remote. A dedicated Street View engineering team have used vehicle-mounted cameras to collect the individual images, which are then "stitched" together using specialized image processing algorithms to result in virtually seamless images. Highly detailed, the interactive panoramas convey remarkable senses of place and space.
