I would like to voluntary capture street-view content of my City for google streetview

[Karatrick]

Hi There,

I realized my City does not have Street-view coverage, for this reason i want to voluntary capture street-view content for google street-view, at least a Hundred Kilometers inside the city to begin with.

• I have a 360 Camera - Insta360 One
• I have a Vehicle and Camera Mounting tripod

What else should i consider buying?

Is there any legal steps to follow?

This is a voluntary initiative to contribute Travel in General

My city is Kigali.

Thank you.

Only thing I can think of is to blur out any faces because of privacy issues. If you are going to do large scale Street View I would recommend getting Insta360 One X because it can do video mode. I don't think Insta360 One can do that. But with interval shooting it is possible, but more work.
