Virtual Tour Comparison

GOOGLE Street View Virtual Tour

A Google Tour typically starts on the outside of your business then moves from scene to scene as it progresses through your business. A scene is a location where we setup our camera & tripod and shoot a 360° panoramic image. To maintain continuity of the tour and to meet Googles standards, we move the camera within line of site of the past scene. This is typically within 15 feet of the last scene. We then set up the camera again and take the next set of images. We will continue this process throughout your facility highlighting your key areas. These images will be processed and linked using Google’s Street View Technology to be placed on Google maps.

The Google tour operates on Google’s servers and functions just like the Google Street View maps operate only for the inside of your business. These virtual tours show up across Google’s search platforms and maps. They are linked to your business account and show up when someone searches for your business. These tours may be embedded into your own website. Google does not offer any options for customization.
