16 Google Street View Street View involves taking the viewer for a video tour of a street. 1.Original concept maybe due to Richard Miner and John Buford at the CPE, UMass Lowell. 2.Other examples are the Paris street tour and the more ambitious and the A9.com map project now abandoned.

17 A photo tour of Paris online http://photos.pagesjaunes.fr http://photos.pagesjaunes.fr Use the cursor on the map to locate the address and the photo window offers views from front, rear, etc. Many people are trying to find a cheap means of creating photo realist 3-d buildings. Has data for major cities in France and Spain

18 Amazon.com’s A9.com maps Amazon.com has created an interesting entry in the geographic information search & display The map is used to locate city blocks of interest and which then allows the viewer to see accurate street level photos to locate the traveler. Amazon.com has abandoned this concept.

19 A9 Display Left side lets viewer move along st. and right shows street level view

20 A9 Street level view of street Note both sides of the street

21 Google Street View What is Street View? Click [Street View] button and cities where the street view feature is supported appear as cameras. Click on a camera to tour streets in the town.
