    This is amazing I'm in awe over this. But how is it possible for Google to take thousands of miles of photos right at street level?

    I actually think that's correct. There was an article about it. It was a company that had an SUV with a 360 camera at the top and drove around taking tons of images.

    I think, Google might have hired or owned powerful telescopic cameras all over world.
