Free Front Row Seat to World Cup
Google shared some great Street View panoramas of each of the stadiums that will be used for the World Cup this year. The panoramas were first shared on Google’s Lat Long blog posted by Deanna Yick, Google Street View Program Manager. It looks like the panos were simply taken with a cell phone so the quality isn’t that great, but it’s neat to see the stadiums anyways.
This is a great example of how you can use Google Street View virtual tours and panoramas to share your location literally with the world.
“Whether you’re watching from the comfort of your couch or packing your bags for Brazil, Google Maps is your ticket to the games. To kick off the tournament, starting today you can explore all 12 stadiums and the iconic painted streets, one of Brazil’s tournament traditions, in Street View—a digital legacy of the 2014 games for years to come.”
Exploring the sights and culture of this year’s football tournament has never been easier with Street View in Google Maps.”
