Create your own Street View

Or have you wanted to create an interactive tour of a memorable journey? Well, starting today, it's now possible for you to build your own Street View experiences to do just that. Using a new feature in our Views community, you can easily connect your photo spheres to create 360º virtual tours of the places you love, then share them with the world on Google Maps. Creating Street View from your photo spheres is as easy as connecting the dots into what looks like a “constellation” of stars. You can even connect your photo spheres to our own Street View panoramas. To get started, just create photo spheres using your Android phone or a DSLR and then share them on Views. I built this Street View experience from photo spheres I created with both my Android phone (Nexus 4) and my DSLR camera. We are excited to see the different types of Street View experiences that everyone will contribute. Create Google Maps of Your Own To Share & Collaborate With Friends.
