Streetview in the Wild: A Flourishing Species

Wednesday, April 23, 2008

The Google Maps API blog today published an extensive list of new Google Maps that use the new (to the Google Maps API) street view feature.

DualMaps
For a given location, displays the Street View, Birds Eye View, and Google aerial map view simultaneously and lets you embed or share the result.



Povo
A local reviews site specially for Boston. Displays street view in a lightbox for each location, and has made a Street View tour especially for the recent Boston Marathon.

StreetView Adventure Game:
In the spirit of the classic interactive fiction games like Zork, this demo lets you play a short game that begins with chasing a guy trying to climb out a window in San Francisco.

Weren't the four main characters in Seinfeld arrested in the very last episode for something like that?

Pamela mis-spelled it. "Ong Map V2" is actually version2 of ONGMAP :) . Still in Alpha status, though

Thanks Yuki - I've changed the spelling to ONGMAP.

(for those confused by anonymous' comment and my reply we are referring to one of the 'descriptions' in the Streetview Adventure Game.)
