Geotagging Pictures in Google Earth: Geotag a photo
Picasa lets you match your photos to a specific location using Google Earth. Geotagging your photo does the following:
1) Embeds location information within your photo file.
2) Displays your photo on a satellite map rendered by Google Earth.
To geotag a photo, follow these steps:
1) Select the photo in Picasa.
2) Click the Geotag button in the Photo Tray. Google Earth opens up and a small Picasa window appears in
the lower-right corner.
3)Navigate and zoom to the location in Google Earth that corresponds with where your picture was taken,
and place the yellow cross-hairs on your chosen spot.
4)Click the Geotag button to place the selected photo. You can also click the Geotag All button to tag all of
the selected pictures with the same location information.
5)When all of your pictures are geotagged, click the Done button to finish the placement.
6)When you exit Google Earth, click the Yes button to save the geotagged locations in your 'My Places'
folder. You'll then be able to access the photos in 'My Places' any time you open up Google Earth.

Google Street View
Google Street View is a feature of Google Maps and Google Earth that provides for many streets in the world 360° horizontal and 290° vertical panoramic views from a row of positions along the street (one in every 10 or 20 meters, or so), from a height of about two meters. It was launched on May 25, 2007, and has gradually expanded to include more cities, and in these cities more streets, and also some rural areas. These photographs are currently available for countries including United States, United Kingdom, Netherlands, France, Italy, Spain, Japan, Australia, and New Zealand. Coverage is shown by dragging "pegman" from its position, on a map of any scale.
Google Street View displays scans taken from a fleet of Chevrolet Cobalts, Saturn Astras or Toyota Prius cars in North America, Opel Astras in continental Europe, Holden Astras in Australia and New Zealand, Opel Astras in the United Kingdom and Toyota Prius cars in Japan. Pedestrian areas, narrow streets and park alleys that cannot be accessed by car are not always covered. However, sometimes Google Tricks[citation needed] (tricycles) are used. On each of these cars (and tricycles) there are nine directional cameras for the 360° views, GPS units for positioning, 3 laser range scanners, manufactured by SICK, for the measuring of up to 50 meters 180° in the front of the vehicle. On the cars there's also 3G/GSM/Wi-Fi antennas for scanning 3G/GSM and Wi-Fi hotspots. Recent, high quality images are based on open source hardware cameras from Elphel. These cameras are also used by Google book search.
Where available, street view images appear after zooming in beyond the highest zooming level in maps and satellite images, and also by dragging "pegman" to some position. Using the keyboard or mouse the horizontal and vertical viewing direction and the zoom level can be selected. A straight or broken line in the photo shows the approximate path followed by the camera car; two arrows link to the next photo in each direction. At junctions and crossings of camera car routes, more arrows are shown.
On November 21, 2008, Street View was added to the Maps application installed on all of Apple iPhones. On December 10, 2008, Street View was added to the Maps application for S60 3rd Edition. Street view has now also been added to the Windows Mobile version of Google Maps. All versions of Google Maps for Android feature street view, and the digital compass can be used to look around the locations.
