journey to the center of the mall
i google-mapped something just now, clicked street view, and found myself...INDOORS!
what thu?! is this a new feature? how are they even getting the images?! hopefully this works: Code:
http://google.com/maps/@42.5236816,-70.9240494,3a,75y,15.51h,83.74t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1sAF1QipMY4Qw6qhoEC8bZpFv-FfIU_OZdee8naBqPfD3h!2e10!3e11!6shttps:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipMY4Qw6qhoEC8bZpFv-FfIU_OZdee8naBqPfD3h%3Dw203-h100-k-no-pi-3.556065-ya245.7548-ro0.59261894-fo100!7i5376!8i2688 Code:
http://google.com/maps/@42.5236816,-70.9240494,3a,75y,15.51h,83.74t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1sAF1QipMY4Qw6qhoEC8bZpFv-FfIU_OZdee8naBqPfD3h!2e10!3e11!6s https:%2F%2Flh5.googleusercontent.com%2Fp%2FAF1QipMY4Qw6qhoEC8bZpFv-FfIU_OZdee8naBqPfD3h%3Dw203-h100-k-no-pi-3.556065-ya245.7548-ro0.59261894-fo100!7i5376!8i2688 and why does it jump down to the SEARCH BOX?? seems to me the URL cannot stand on its own (b/c of those %2Fs, maybe?**), and that it somehow RESEMBLES a totally unrelated google search? izzat it? ----- ** tried hand-converting to slashes, but that made it WORSE! now can't even see in search box. |

Not everything is updated at the same time. I once found myself on a virtual main street, looking at the shops from the centre of the road. Standing in front of a butcher's shop, I moved forward towards the door and next thing I knew I was inside a little tourist tea shop (the chocolate eclairs behind the counter looked good ). I googled the name of the business and found it had shut and reopened as a different shop a couple of years previous. So clearly the view from the street was out of sync with the more recently updated close up view.
A similar thing with a new housing development near me - the street view shows the new houses but the aerial view shows a building site. I guess the cameras don't travel out to the sticks as often as in the cities, some of the coverage of my area is still dated from 2012, although the main roads are mostly 2019.

so who's taking these pics? surely google can't visit every business in the world!
i assume businesses themselves are submitting them -- for starters, because the pix half of that link has "usercontent" in the URL -- altho, how on earth do they have the equipment to compete with that google "sphere camera"? seems like the tech specs would be impossible to meet. it is a bit disconcerting to click "street view" and find yourself in some guy's storage closet, btw. i had to check to see if i still had my kidneys.... |
