Street View Europe is comming soon… (Maybe 01/2009)

Following pictures appeared recently on the internet, indicated that street view cars are en-route throughout Europe. This picture was made in Milan today:

Based on expericenes it can be calculated that they will be online in the beginning of 2009. I’m interested in seeing which city will be the first one in Europe with streetview. I think the legal issues (about garble licence plates and faces), is little bit different form country to country, and an important factor for introducing street view in Europe. Normally Zurich should be one of the first cities with Street view.

    If you look closely, this street view car is quite different to the ones they’ve been using before. They have 3D laser scanners on top of the pole, as well as cameras. More details here:
