Google street map of your home.
« on: 07 February 2012, 09:13:03 »

Hi,just browsing at the google map of my street,and the car outside my house is my previous suburu Legacy estate,which was sold about 5 years ago.
So whats parked outside yours,and how often do google update these maps.

No cars at all either in my drive or on the roadside. They must have done it while we where all at work. Picture has never changed from original so assuming they are not updating them.

Right up the top of my drive was my last Opel Manta, sadly it is obscured by a neighbours bush/tree.

No street view of our rural road but google earth has just been updated. I can see my soon to go to the crusher in the sky silver Omega. In fact the detail is so good I can see a six foot long piece of timber holding the sheeting down on one of our logpiles.

when I put my address in the house picture is of a house 200 yards away - on satellite over correct address the Omega is there and what looks like a Crossfire my wife used to swap with when my son went on business and took her car - so guessing about 5 years ago.

Just put in my postcode, hit the satellite button and up popped a picture. Not quite what I was expecting. It's in slightly the wrong hemisphere, for a start, but bizarrely, I knew exactly where the scene was from. Kirstenbosch gardens near Cape Town.  ;D



Tried again and, sadly, my house hasn't been teleported there. It's still in glorious Hampshire. :(

That is Kirstenbosch in Cape Town - I was there in 2010 - great place to visit but was 40 degrees C when we were exploring it

I think I know which view I'd prefer! Although not if it's 40ºC..
