New Views in Australia

Next month, Google plans to start taking new photographs for Australian Street View to give users a more up-to-date experience.

See more information at the Google Australia blog.

Newer Zealand

Yesterday, Google New Zealand Blog announced that the Kiwi Street View imagery is scheduled for an update, this time with higher resolution photographs such as those in Europe and Canada. Also, face-blurring technology is planned to be implemented.

The first region to get the new photographs is Auckland, starting this week. So for those of you in New Zealand, as the National Business Review says, "Brush your hair and avoid massage parlours."

Update! Mettre à jour! Aktualizovat!

Today, many of the streets of Canada and the Czech Republic are now visible in Street View! Here are the Canadian regions:

• Banff National Park
• Calgary, Alberta
• Halifax, Nova Scotia
• Hamilton, Ontario
• Kitchener, Ontario
• Montréal, Quebec
• Ottawa, Ontario
• Québec, Quebec
• Toronto, Ontario
• Vancouver, British Columbia

And in the Czech Republic, the most coverage is in and around the Praha area, but then extends to Beroun, Brno, Mělník, Poděbrady, and Příbram.

I can't wait to see what these countries' streets have to offer! Thanks, Google!
