Say cheese: Google’s new Street View cars are now rolling down Aussie streets

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Most of us are dependent on GPS to navigate city streets throughout the world, and Google Maps ubiquity (and free price tag) have helped
make it one of the more popular options
That does mean the internet giant needs to constantly update the navigation platform to ensure the information it presents is current.With
new developments on the rise around the country, Google Australia has today announced that a new fleet of eight Street View cars that use
updated camera technology will take to the streets this week.Image courtesy: Google AustraliaThis is the first time in eight years that
mapping will begin in Sydney and Melbourne first, with the cars heading to other states in the coming months
The updated images will be available via Street View later in the year.While Google Australia is keeping mum about where exactly the cars
are headed, and when, you can follow the fleet's journey on the Google Maps Street View site.Street View, available on Google Maps and
Google Earth, has been offering users panoramic views along the streets of the world since 2007
It gives millions of travellers the opportunity to research places they're planning visit beforehand, or to just experience what a place is
