Igloo We have developed an integration with Google Street View for viewing street panoramas in 360 degrees.

From Igloo Core Engine version 1.3, the Igloo Streetview Service is incorporated into the Igloo Core Service. The 1.3 installation script includes a migration process to transfer the API key and favourites to the core service. |

Creating a StreetView Layer
...
Set the URL of the new WebView to be http://127.0.0.1:9070800/streetview/iglooview. This URL is an endpoint in the Igloo StreetView Core Service (which runs as a Windows service). The endpoint generates a cubemap which can be used to give a 360 degree image in the Igloo. Set the Size parameters to be 12000 x 2000 and untick the Dynamic Browser Resolution checkbox. The display does not change frequently so we can lower the frames per second (FPS) to 10. Tick the Show UI checkbox in the General properties so that the TruePerspective toolbar appears, this can be used to adjust the view to look around the full 360 content.

Creating Additional Layers
The Apps tab in ICE Igloo Control Panel has an icon called StreetView and this displays the control screen showing a map and an orbit view. Both the map and orbit view can be used to navigate by clicking the arrows in the top view or by clicking a new position on the map. You can also enter a location in the text input field above the orbit view. This will search for possible locations which can then be selected from the search results list.

This control screen can be displayed as a layer on the ICE Igloo Core Engine canvas. The URL is http://127.0.0.1:9070800/streetview/control
The other available endpoints are:
http://127.0.0.1:9070800/streetview/mapview - displays the streetview map with pegman
http://127.0.0.1:9070800/streetview/orbitview - displays the streetview panorama in a click-drag view
