Friends, to go on a long journey, you must have often used Google Maps to identify the way. A new feature has been added to the same Google Map, which is named Google Street View. This feature shows us every street corner as it is.
There is currently no charge for using Google Street View. It is also very easy to use. You can virtually visit anywhere in the world through your mobile or through your computer from the comfort at your home sofa. o let’s go to my computer and visit the Gateway of India in Mumbai and Burj Khalifa in Dubai.
Friends, you have visited these two places, but it is also very important to know that through which technique Google is collecting all this data.
For Street View, Google collects photos by foot, bicycle, scooter, boat, car. Google uses special cameras that can take pictures of multiple directions at the same time. These photos are later joined together to show a 360 degree view.
