Abstract

Google Street View has provided millions of users with the ability to visually locate businesses around the world using 360° panoramic imagery. Due to the bulky, custom hardware required to precisely geo-locate the imagery, such as laser scanners and high precision GPS devices, Street View experiences have been limited to large areas that can provide cost-effective collections. This has prevented users from discovering places such as the interiors of small businesses.
