Pre trip tool
I may be the last to see this but that does not diminish my 'amazement
at the value' and 'fear of the intrusion' of the tool

I went to google maps to look at an arial view of a realeastae listing
of interest. To my surprise a small pic of the home taken from the
street showed up. I clicked the thumbnail pic and was given the tools
to walk down the street turn corners and rotate the camera 360deg. I
entered my home address and too was able to see and walk the streets .
I clicked "STREETS" ( their is a glitch where you must close Googlemaps
and reopen it for another search??)

The tool is so manuverable that I was able to walk pass a tree that was
blocking the view of a truck on the side of my house , spinn the camera
and identify that the truck belonged to a contractor who worked in my
house 4 months ago.

I used the tool to ;measure access for a project by scaling a fence
comparitive to a standard garage door ;check for the ability to turn my
rig in a residential area; and qualify my interest in makeing a sales
call to an address. I can see that it might help qualify or add
credability to a ebay purchase trip or help presight a RV Park. I can
also see that it could be used to harm.



This is way cool, may save someone a trip , fuel and money
