Google Street View List Update – 2021/08/30

A list update happened. Discover the changes that occurred.

After two weeks without any changes the list finally got updated.

A large part of the update is about Japan. The file used to store the list data has been cleaned of a lot of duplicate entries and many changes shuffled the entries, making it complicated to list the added or removed entries. We can still notice the addition of a few prefectures such as Aomori.

In Canada the Yukon entry is extended to October. This could mean many things, like delays because of bad weather / road conditions / technical issues or maybe they want to update more places which takes more time.

For the USA New Mexico was added up to the end of the year.

In Mexico the state of Quintana Roo was added up to December. Cars were already spotted in this state and the entry was already in the file so this was to be expected.

Brazil only got duplicate entries in the file being removed. This doesn’t impact the visible data on the website.

Luxembourg was removed from the list as it was scheduled between June and August, meaning they finished working here.

That’s it for this update, see you next time!
