Google and Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) today jointly launched 360-degree panoramic imagery of 30 out of 100 "nationally-important monuments" including Red Fort, Humayun's Tomb, Jantar Mantar and Qutub Minar among others, on 20th February 2013.
Important to note :
- The search engine giant and the Ministry of Culture had signed a memorandum at the Qutub Minar complex last October, following which the company created a "virtual walkthrough" application using its "Street View Trekker" technology for the first time in India.
- The Street View Trekker technology was introduced in 2012, which is a Street View camera platform, with 15 cameras on board that capture a 360-degree view of the area around.
