Reading - Qyoroview

Qyoroview is a system that has the ability to create a large scale street view from user generated content. The system is targetting the street view systems that are currently becoming quite popular, however, the need for vehicle mounted cameras renders the exercise to be very expensive, and hence only available to large companies.

The Qyoroview system utilises mobile phones that are equipped with both mobile phones and Global Positioning Systems (GPS) to allow users to capture their own street view photos and upload them with attached GPS data. The system then calculates the image location in respect to nearby vectors, and automatically resizes and clips the image into a street view gallery.
