Pepe,

We are still working out some kinks with the badges, but if you are a current and verified Street View Photographer you should receive one of these badges.

Thank you for your answer CorrieD 🙂 Yes I am a current and verified a Street View Trusted Photographer, so I will wait 🙂

Hi @Corrie! Now I’m currently a part of the Street View trusted program but I've not reached certification status yet or it'll not count my 360 photos (using smartphone with 14MP resolution, mostly) published using the Street View app? So, am I eligible for this Trusted badge? Thanks!

I have published over 400 high-resolution photosphere. I think I've met the requirements. I applied months ago but was not even invited. When will this invitation in what way?

The Street View app team is hard at work to bring trusted enrollment to the Street View app ASAP. We're now fairly sure this will happen on July 25th (though as you know, things often change here at Google). Thanks for your patience and apologies for the delay — we know it's painful waiting, but we trust that the team's prioritization of product excellence over a rushed launch will best serve our community. 

At that time, anyone who has published fifty or more Maps-approved 360 photos through the SV app or SV editor will be invited to join the trusted program and have a virtual badge shown in the SV app — and here in this community.

I did not know about this but it's good to know. I guess I'll have to start taking more photospheres then

Hi,

I'm using SV mobile app and  RICOH THETA S camera to upload 360 photos to Google Maps. few months before I received a email from Google and it says, Thank you very much for participating in the Street View | Trusted program. and you currently have 0 published qualifying shoots, Your current status in the program is: Certification Shooting!
But under my profile I can see the Street View Photographer badge... also I have published more than 90 photospheres!
I'm new to this 360 photos and appriciate if you could explain bit more about this badge. Thank you

Hi @Corrie,

will the 360 spheres I uploaded form my device and shared with maps, count too? Before the Street View app was released you had to upload/share it with Google Maps to get published on Google Maps.
