Yeah, creating panoramas is not like writing code, you'd need a decent camera and panorama-stitching software to get nice panoramas. I personally like hugin.sf.net but haven't tried many, it takes a while to pick reference points even though the software makes it very easy.
For best results: - use a tripod, preferably with a panning head - use a bubble level to keep the camera pointing flat - shoot in vertical format (not landscape) for lesser optical distortion and better vertical coverage Sorry for the off-topic, this is more related to photography than to the API, but those tips were not obvious before lots of trial and frustration, so I'd figure I'd share them :) Cheers, Miguel On Thu, Aug 12, 2010 at 11:40, StilgarBF <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I want to use the v3 API to create my own little StreetView. > > Is there any tool available to create tiles for street view from a > panorama? > > I understand the naming-conventions and zoom-levels, but think its a > bit of a sisyphos-job to create all the needed tiles for 3 or 4 > zoomlevels and all panoramas by hand with photoshop or something. > Unfortunately I'm more into HTML and JS - and not some High-Level > Language to build something myself. > > thanks > T > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group. > To post to this group, send email to > [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]<google-maps-js-api-v3%[email protected]> > . > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/google-maps-js-api-v3?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
