Photosynth on Google Maps

Photosynth Map

Soren Johannessen of Microformats.dk and the Danish contributor to Google Maps Mania has created an example Google Map that has Microsoft's Photosynth embedded within the information windows.

Photosynth transforms regular digital photos into a three-dimensional, 360-degree experience. Soren has created three Photosynths of different locations in Copenhagen, Denmark. When you click on a tag on the map you are then able to navigate around various views of the mapped location via Photosynth.

To view the photos you will need to download Microsoft's Photosynth plug-in. It is definitely worth downloading the plug-in as embedded Photosynths is a great way of exploring an area on Google Maps

One question: How to create this Photosynth Collections?

This site explains how to create the Photosynths.

http://photosynth.net/learn.aspx

The finished photosynths come with some code to embed an iframe - so you can embed the code in Google Maps. If you want to have a go try http://mapmaker.donkeymagic.co.uk/ . Cut and Paste the embed code into the box that says 'Popup Content' and Robert is your mother's brother.

Do I need microsoft? I only have access to mac and linux computers ....

Keir Clarke комментирует...

Windows only at the moment I'm afraid, although Microsoft say adding Mac compatibility is a 'top priority'. sorry I should have mentioned that in the post.
