It’s been a long and painful wait, but Google Street View is finally coming to Switzerland! According to Swissinfo.ch, Google has already launched a fleet of cars equipped with 360 degree cameras mounted on their roofs to crawl through urban areas of the Cantons of Bern, Zürich & Geneva. Google has yet to announced when Google Street View will be fully available for Swiss users, however knowing the Google Mobiles are currently cruising around our fair cities means the wait can’t be much longer.
Google Street View enables users to explore 360 degree photographic street views of cities from a computer or mobile device. This adds a new dimension to using Google Maps, making finding or scouting locations infinitely more fun, visual and practical. Imagine being able to view properties before renting or buying, from the comfort of your own living room. Ponder the convenience of checking out hotels before booking or even scoping out a meeting point to determine the best parking spots?
Naturally, Privacy Fundamentalists will surely be raising the question: ” Does Google Street View mess with your right to privacy?” If you have an opinion, feel free to leave a video or text response bellow.
