Can you view old maps from 2000 to 2005 in Google Maps or earth Very important please reply?

Google Maps doesn't allow you to see old imagery but using Google Earth you can enable historical imagery in the View menu and pick the time period in the time slider that appears.

However, availability is location-specific so you may find imagery for a given year in one area and not another. Whenever Google updates its imagery typically the older imagery will become available under historical imagery.

How was Google Street View created?

When Street View first launched in May 2007, Google used vans driving on public streets around the world to capture images with integrated GPS devices. Now Google cameras have been adapted to cars and special 3-wheeled tricycles.

Once the photographs have been taken they then go through computer processing to make them ready for showing on Google Maps and Google Earth. Google takes all the individual photos that have been collected by the cameras and "sew" them together to make the 360° panorama photo that you see on Street View.

Google applies "cutting-edge" face blurring technology, which helps make sure that passers-by in the photographs can't be identified. Google also blurs legible license plates.

How do you make Google Maps 3d?

In the new Google Maps there is an "earth" mode which shows satellite imagery and terrain which gives a 3-D like view of the earth. The Earth icon can be seen in the lower-left of the map if available.

To see 3D photos in "classic" Google Maps, you will need a pair of old-fashioned red/cyan glasses, bring up Street View in Google Maps by dragging the orange Pegman onto the map. Right-mouse click on the map then select ''3D mode on" option (or press '3' key) to turn on/off 3D mode.

This feature seems to be available anywhere in the world where Google currently offers Street View, but this is not currently available in the "new" Google Maps.

What are a list of Google Maps privacy issues?

Satellite imagery viewable in Google Maps or Google Earth has some privacy concerns but the largest privacy concern is typically over Google's high-resolution street view imagery, where you have the potential to identify individuals.

Google applies "cutting-edge" blurring technology to blur faces and licenses plates on all Street View images but that is not perfect and people have to explicitly opt out to blur images further assuming they can find themselves in a given image.

Google claims that "an individual or the vehicle cannot be identified" but then has this disclaimer "if our detectors missed something, you can easily let us know".

Can Google Maps read a newspaper?

The highest-resolution satellite imagery available in Google Maps cannot yet read print in a newspaper but Google's Street View could possibly read the headlines.

License plates, for example, can be seen in Google's Street View imagery so there is a detection process in place to identify and blur license plates to prevent identification of vehicles and individuals.

Newspaper print the size of license plate lettering or larger in all practical sense could be legible in Street View from Google Maps or Google Earth.
