Tips for Blue Line Painters!

in my last blueline meetup I have prepared a google my maps and identified all those missing street views before starting my mission. and now we do not need Google My maps. yes! if you are using the updated google map version, it will show you all those blue lines on Google Maps!

I love this cool feature and I’m sure this will help us to locate the missing street views easily.

@PaulPavlinovich , @ravindus , @kasunaaa hope you like this cool feature for your mobile.

Congratulations. Checking the road without street view on the app is indeed super helpful. Thanks for the tip

@IlankovanT yes embedding the street view pegman option to the map from the last update is cool. It will ease our lives.

It is very handy for planning update missions. Much easier than using the Street View App which often doesn’t update.

I am looking for a tutorial on making and contributing to an existing blue line.

So far I ony found youtube videos by 3’rd party app makers.

Following their tip, I did make a blue line. But still not complete.

Tips:

Minimum 25 panorama photos (360 photos, no faces, no number plates etc)

Each photo Between 3-5 meters

Don’t add map listing

This works great to create a new blue line. I created a blue line.

Questions, how to update existing blue line.
