Google Maps Street View is currently taking images on the Negro river in the Amazon, Brazil. Images will be taken from a boat and also a trike. The trike will have the 360 degree camera mounted on it’s top. This is a partnership with Brazil’s Amazonas Sustainable Foundation (FAS) to show the Amazon area and it’s communities. We’re looking forward to seeing the images in a couple of months time!
