I was wondering why there isn’t or if there is, an Open Source (Free, or not) Street View like Google Maps. I like geography as a hobby, like my other hobbies, and found GeoHub which sparked my interest in being a free geoguessr alternative. I just don’t understand why Google is the only Mapping service people go to, is Google the only one that has street view? is this a hard business model to achieve?
Please, I’d love too know :)
And once you are finished you can probably start over to stay up to date
Google doesn’t do that either, so we wouldn’t have to either. I could name a few places that use photos from 10+ years ago, which look drastically different from the present
They definitely update the photos, just faster in some areas than others, visibly.
Depends on the place I guess. I’m pretty sure some are updated
Yeah they are
Google absolutely update most roads every year or so. Busy roads multiple times a year. Even my cul de sac in a minor town has photos every 5 years
