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.

Wow, so that's what Iqaluit looks like.
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

The architecture in some of those images is very interesting, though the school with no windows is a bit unsettling, unsettling because didn't expect it to be a school. Looked it up; it's an elementary school.

They have software to do that.

I don't get any visual treats for Iqaliuit. Only map and google earth, but it is dark, so that is black. No streetview.  :dunno:
I can do upside down chocolate moo things!

Click on the satellite icon, then it will change to have streetview photos at the bottom. The building referenced is white.

I had that problem at one point for some reason,  click the question mark near the other options in the lower right corner and choose return to classic google maps and the satellite view should work along with the streetview

I had tried that. Parts' suggestion helped.

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.
