Mapjack Vehicle
Have a look at Mapjack’s image collection system. It’s a bicycle! I’m very impressed how lightweight their system is. Getting a power supply, a camera array, a GPS and a computer to fit in that little backpack is no mean feat.

Go north from this point (click on the ‘N’ in the image) and watch as the kid wipes out turning in to his driveway as the Google car passes. (thanks Jason O)
StreetView in 3D
There are rumours going around on the internets about a possible 3D version of StreetView for Google Earth. Some special cams have been seen in Italy yesterday. Google Maps StreetView is still only available in the US. Cameras on top of Google cars have been seen in Canada, Britain, Australia and now Italy. Images from Australia will apparently be available later this year. As usual Google don’t give out any information about when that will happen. Keep your eye on the StreetView map and maybe some day soon…
