As a reminder, Streetside was widely available in the United States and some areas in Canada, United Kingdom, France and Spain were covered.If you want to email someone a map URL or embed a map into your website, you can get the map you need in most cases by clicking Share at. Overall the coverage of Streetside is starting to look interesting despite of the low imagery quality. Coverage in Chile seems more complete on Streetside but in Argentina Google is way more complete. Most of the covered areas are already available on Google Street View however some places are not, such as the area close to French Guyana in the northern state of Amapá or the southern part of Chile on the Tierra del Fuego region. Streetside coverage in South AmericaĪgain imagery is done by TomTom, with similar quality than the other recently added countries listed above. The latest continent to receive Streetside is South America: Brazil, Argentina and Chile were added to the service. Most of the imagery was done by TomTom but in Vietnam the car does not bear TomTom’s logo and the quality is a bit different so possible it was done by another company, maybe Bing itself. This shows coverage could be published in this country and Google did drive cars there in the past. But the major difference is Vietnam which is available as a whole on Streetside while the very small coverage that was visible on Street View got removed in September. Conversely the island on Mindanao in the Philippines is not on Bing Streetside but is on Google Street View. Streetside coverage in AsiaĪgain some areas are not available on Google Street View, like Aceh in Indonesia. Considering TomTom is a quite smaller company than Google this shows how much Google could cover if they were motivated enough.Ī few days later new countries were added in Asia: Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam and the Philippines. Streetside coverage in AfricaĪs you can see some of the countries are not available on Google Street View: Zimbabwe, Zambia and Mozambique. The imagery is not made by Microsoft but by TomTom and unfortunately the quality is quite poor. In the meanwhile many other countries in southern Africa were added: Botswana, Lesotho, eSwatini, Mozambique, Zimbabwe and Zambia. South Africa was the first country to appear with coverage near Cape Town. This is quite a surprise as Streetside was inactive for years and all of sudden new countries started appearing, including countries not covered by Google Street View. Recently Microsoft started adding new data to its street view service, Streetside.

Update 6: Streetside coverage was added in Puerto Rico, US Virgin Islands, Hawai’i and Alaska.
