This page shows ways you can embed photo spheres on any website with an
interactive, 360-degree panorama viewer just like you see in Street View on
Google Maps.
Street View in the Maps Embed API
The Google Maps Embed API
lets you display Street View images on your site or blog as interactive photo
spheres. Google Street View provides panoramic views from designated locations
throughout its coverage area. User contributed photo spheres, and Street View
special collections are also available.
Here is an example of an embedded interactive photo sphere:
The service provides panoramic 360 degree views from designated roads throughout
its coverage area. Street View's API coverage is the same as that for the
Google Maps application. The list of currently supported cities for Street View
is available at the
Google Maps website.
Street View Image API
The Google Street View Image API lets you
embed a static (non-interactive) thumbnail of a photo sphere into your webpage
without the use of JavaScript. This is helpful for creating galleries of
multiple photo spheres.
Here is an example of a static image URL for a photo sphere:
[[["Easy to understand","easyToUnderstand","thumb-up"],["Solved my problem","solvedMyProblem","thumb-up"],["Other","otherUp","thumb-up"]],[["Missing the information I need","missingTheInformationINeed","thumb-down"],["Too complicated / too many steps","tooComplicatedTooManySteps","thumb-down"],["Out of date","outOfDate","thumb-down"],["Samples / code issue","samplesCodeIssue","thumb-down"],["Other","otherDown","thumb-down"]],["Last updated 2024-10-09 UTC."],[[["This page provides instructions for embedding interactive 360-degree photo spheres on your website using Google Maps APIs."],["You can use either the Google Maps Embed API or the Maps JavaScript API to display interactive Street View panoramas."],["The Google Street View Image API allows embedding static thumbnails of photo spheres without JavaScript for galleries or simpler displays."],["Photo spheres can be sourced from Google Street View, user contributions, and special collections."]]],[]]
