They have streetviews in Iqaluit on Baffin Island that by the shadow appears to have been taken by someone walking
https://www.google.com/maps/@63.7484591,-68.5177387,15z
They do, and with that four-way camera strapped to their back.

There are a bunch of remote places were it looks like they did it that way,  I wonder if they just ship the equipment and hire a local or send somebody  with it
Have always wondered about the people who review the photos too, blurring out license plates and things like that.

They have software to do that.
Interesting. Bright software.

I think it's fairly easy to do that kind of image recognition, considering that their images will almost always present views from very specific angles.
That makes sense. Seems they might still want to have humans review them to look for oversights.

Indeed. I've seen some interesting mistakes made.

Think about doing that eight hours a day five days a week :GA:

You could be promoted to editing bigger cities after a few months. :zoinks:

Apparently, flashing the Google earth streetview camera is illegal in the land of Oz.    :thumbdn:

Is it more illegal than flashing anywhere else?
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

She's got blurred boobs. Now there's something that should be illegal.
