1. Google 지도 스트리트 뷰 를 사용하여 (Google Maps Street View)휴가지(Vacation Spots) 탐색
(Imagine)테네시 의 (Tennessee)스모키 산맥(Smoky Mountains) 으로 가족 휴가(family vacation) 를 계획하고 있다고 상상해 보십시오 . 쇼핑, 하이킹, 식사를 할 수 있는 멋진 장소가 있다는 것을 알고 있습니다. 그러나 최고의 것을 어떻게 찾습니까?
물론, Google 리뷰나 지역 가이드(Google Reviews or Local Guides) 에 의존할 수 있지만 여행하기 전에 관심 있는 장소를 방문하는 것이 어떻습니까?
이렇게 하려면 Google 지도(Google Maps) 를 사용하여 방문하려는 마을을 찾으십시오. 그런 다음 위성 보기(Satellite View and zoom) 로 전환 하고 모든 상점, 식당 및 기타 명소가 있는 위치를 확대합니다. 그런 다음 스트리트 뷰 아이콘(Street View icon) (작은 노란색 사람) 을 탐색하려는 거리 위치(street location) 의 지도로 드래그합니다 .

일단 거리에 있으면 화살표를 사용하여 그 거리를 따라 앞뒤로 여행하십시오. 마우스를 클릭(Click) 하고 밀면 실제로 방문할 수 있는 모든 명소를 좌우로 볼 수 있습니다.

여행에서 가장 실망스러운 부분 중 하나는 온라인에서는 훌륭하게 들리지만 일단 거기에 도착하면 동네가 끔찍해 보이는 레스토랑이나 명소를 여정에 넣는 것입니다. 스트리트 뷰로(Street View) 미리 휴가지를(vacation spot) 탐색 하면 항상 흥미롭고 재미있는 환경으로 가족을 데려갈 수 있습니다.
2. 역사 보기 로 장소가 어떻게 변했는지 확인하세요(History View)
Google 은 수년 동안 카메라가 달린 차량을 전 세계에 보내 왔습니다. 이는 Google 이 여러 장소에 대한 인상적인 역사적 사진 컬렉션을 비축했음을 의미합니다.
스트리트 뷰(Street View) 에서 위치 주소(location address) 바로 아래에 있는 작은 타이머 아이콘(timer icon) 을 선택할 수 있습니다 . 과거 사진 아래 에 슬라이더 막대 가 표시됩니다. (slider bar)막대를 보고 싶은 연도로 뒤로 밀고 확대할 사진을 선택합니다.

지역 역사가들에게 이것은 시간이 지남에 따라 장소가 어떻게 변했는지 보는 환상적인 방법입니다. 타운 관리자와 정치인에게는 지역 타운 투자가 커뮤니티를 (좋든 나쁘게든) 어떻게 변화시켰는지 보는 통찰력 있는 방법입니다.
환경 운동가의 경우 History View 를 사용하여 개간 또는 기타 상업적 이익이 시간이 지남에 따라 자연 경관에 어떻게 부정적인 영향을 미쳤는지 조사할 수 있습니다.

그러나 Google(Google) 에서 사진을 캡처한 계절을 예측할 수는 없습니다 . 따라서 두 사진의 계절이 다른 경우 자연 경관과 같은 것을 비교하는 것이 더 어려울 수 있습니다.
3. 미래 아파트의 이웃 탐색(Neighborhood)
아파트 사냥(Apartment hunting) 은 어렵습니다. 아파트 기능에 귀하에게 중요한 사항이 포함되어 있는지 확인해야 합니다. 비용이 맞아야 합니다. 그리고 학교와 지역 경제도 중요합니다.
그러나 아파트 목록(apartment listing) 에서 볼 수 없는 한 가지는 해당 아파트 주변의 커뮤니티가 어떻게 생겼는지입니다.
여기에서 Google 지도 스트리트 뷰(Google Maps Street View) 가 도움이 될 수 있습니다.
잠재적인 아파트의 주소를 입력한 다음 스트리트 뷰(Street View) 아이콘을 지도 로 드래그합니다 .

스트리트 뷰(Street View) 를 사용하여 이웃을 탐색 하면 일반적으로 아파트 목록(apartment listing) 에서 얻을 수 없는 많은 통찰력을 얻을 수 있습니다 .
- 이웃의 거리와 인도는 양호한 상태를 유지하고 있습니까?
- 동네 집 밖에 오래된 차나 쓰레기가 보이나요?
- 거리를 걷는 주민들은 어떤 모습일까요? 동네가(neighborhood look) 위험 해 보이 나요 ?
- 아파트 건물이나 집(apartment building or home) 의 외부는 잘 수리되어 있습니까?
Google 지도 스트리트 뷰(Google Maps Street View) 가 미래의 임대 선택에 대해 얼마나 많은 통찰력을 제공할 수 있는지 놀랄 것 입니다.
4. 가스를 사용(Using Gas) 하지 않고 경치(Scenic Views) 를 감상하며 휴식
전 세계에 숨막히는 전경이 펼쳐져 있습니다. 그저 즐기기만 하면 됩니다. 물론, 당신은 그 경치를 보기 위해 항공료, 호텔, 렌트카에 투자할 수 있습니다. 또는 위치를 입력하고 소파에 앉아 있는 동안 그 전경을 웅장하게 탐색할 수 있습니다.

이것은 항상 여행하고 싶은 방식(way one) 은 아니지만 직장에서 길고 스트레스가 많은 하루를 보낸 후 스트리트 뷰 를 사용하여 (Street View)뉴햄프셔 화이트 (New Hampshire White)마운틴 의 유명한 (Mountains)Kancamagus 고속도로(Kancamagus Highway) 를 따라 드라이브를 하는 것이 좋지 않을까요? 아니면 캘리포니아 의 (California)시에라 네바다 산맥(Sierra Nevada Mountains) 을 탐험 하시겠습니까?
또는 바다가 마음에 든다면 노르웨이 의 (Norway)Atlantic Ocean Road 를 따라 가상의 경치 좋은 드라이브를 즐길 수 있습니다 .

높이 치솟는 갈매기, 일렁이는 파도, 해안을 달리는 태양을 Google 지도 스트리트 뷰(Google Maps Street View) 와 함께 감상하세요 .
유일 하게 빠진 것은(thing missing) 열린 창문을 통해 불어오는(scent blowing) 바다 냄새입니다.
5. Google 지도 스트리트 뷰로(Google Maps Street View) 버려진 장소 탐색
탐색이 취미라면 Google 지도 스트리트 뷰(Google Maps Street View) 를 사용하여 버려진 장소를 탐색할 수 있습니다 .
전 세계에는 시간의 모래 아래에서 잃어버린 역사적인 도시가 있습니다. 웨스트 버지니아 주 (West Virginia)서먼드(Thurmond) 와 같은 버려진 마을에서는 과거의 유령만이 방문했던 오래된 벽돌과 석조 은행(brick and stone banks) 이나 감옥 을 볼 수 있습니다 .

버려진 테마파크, 성, 정신병원, 감옥 등을 엿볼 수 있습니다.
스트리트 뷰(Street View) 를 사용하여 이러한 종류의 탐색 은 약간의 조사가 필요합니다. 버려진 장소의 정확한 위치가 항상 공개적으로 사용 가능한 것은 아니기 때문입니다.
그러나 위치를 추적할 수 있다면 Google 지도 스트리트 뷰(Google Maps Street View) 를 호출하여 드라이브를 하고 엿볼 수 있습니다. 운이 좋다면 다른 사람들이 직접 그 위치를 방문하고 Google 지도(Google Maps) 에 실제 사진을 남겨서 더 자세히 볼 수 있습니다.
6. 하이킹을 가기 전에 트레일 헤드 찾기(Find Trailheads)
등산객이 될 때 가장 짜증나는 부분 중 하나는 많은 트레일 헤드의 위치를 찾는 것입니다. 마지막으로 하고 싶은 일은 등산로가 시작되는 곳을 찾기 위해 산기슭을 운전하며 오전 내내 낭비하는 것입니다.(morning driving)
대부분의 경우 Google 지도(Google Maps) 에서 바로 많은 트레일 헤드 위치(일반적으로 주차장(parking lot) 을 찾을 수 있는 위치 )를 찾을 수 있습니다.

위치를 찾으면 마우스를 클릭하고 드래그하여 좋은 주차 위치(parking location) 를 좌우로 볼 수도 있습니다. 만족스러우면 현재 주소 옆에 있는 빨간색 아이콘(marker icon) 을 선택 하고 나중에 찾을 수 있도록 Google 지도 에 위치를 표시하세요.(Google Maps)

1. Use Google Maps Street View to Explore Vacation Spots
Imagine you’re planning your family vacation to the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee. You know there are wonderful places to shop, hike, and go dining. But how do you find the best ones?
Sure, you could depend on Google Reviews or Local Guides, but why not visit the locations you’re interested in before you travel there?
To do this, use Google Maps to find the town you want to visit. Then switch to Satellite View and zoom into the location with all of the stores, dining areas, and other attractions. Then drag the Street View icon (the little yellow person) onto the map at the street location you want to explore.

Once you’re on the street, just use the arrows to travel back and forth along that street. Click and slide the mouse to look left and right at all of the attractions you could visit once you’re actually there.

<<exploring-vacation-street.jpg>>
One of the most frustrating parts of traveling is putting restaurants or attractions on your itinerary that sound great online, but once you get there the neighborhood looks terrible. Exploring your vacation spot ahead of time with Street View ensures that you’re taking your family to environments that are always exciting and fun.
2. See How Places Have Changed with History View
Google has been sending their camera-topped vehicles around the world for many years. That means that Google has stockpiled an impressive collection of historical photos of many places.
In Street View, you can select the small timer icon just under the location address. You’ll see a slider bar under past photos. Slide the bar back to the year you’d like to see and then select the photo to zoom in.

For local historians, this is a fantastic way to see how places have changed over time. For town administrators and politicians, it’s an insightful way to see how local town investments have changed the community (for better or worse).
For environmentalists, History View lets you examine how clearcutting or other commercial interests have negatively impacted the natural landscape over time.

Keep in mind, however, that you can’t predict what season Google has captured its photos. So comparing things like the natural landscape can be more difficult if the seasons between two photos are different.
3. Explore Your Future Apartment’s Neighborhood
Apartment hunting is hard. You need to make sure apartment features include things that matter to you. The cost needs to be right. And the schools and local economy are also important.
But one thing you can’t see in an apartment listing is what the community around that apartment looks like.
This is where Google Maps Street View can help.
Type in the address of your potential apartment, and then drag the Street View icon onto the map.

Exploring the neighborhood using Street View gives you lots of insights you normally can’t get from an apartment listing.
- Are the neighborhood streets and sidewalks kept in good condition?
- Do you see older cars or garbage outside local homes?
- What do residents walking along the streets look like? Does the neighborhood look dangerous?
- Is the outside of the apartment building or home in good repair?
You’d be amazed how much insight Google Maps Street View can offer into your future rental choice.
4. Relax to Scenic Views Without Using Gas
There are some breathtaking views all around the world, just waiting to be enjoyed. Sure, you could invest in airfare, a hotel, and a rental car just to see those views. Or, you could type in the location and explore those views in all their grandeur while sitting on your couch.

This isn’t the way one would always want to travel, but after a long and stressful day at work, wouldn’t it be nice to use Street View to take a drive along the famous Kancamagus Highway in the New Hampshire White Mountains? Or explore the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California?
Or if the ocean is your thing, you could take a virtual scenic drive along the Atlantic Ocean Road in Norway.

Watch the seagulls soaring, the waves rippling, and the sun shining as you coast along with Google Maps Street View.
The only thing missing is the ocean scent blowing in through your open windows.
5. Explore Abandoned Places with Google Maps Street View
If exploration is your thing, then you may want to turn to exploring abandoned places with Google Maps Street View.
Across the world, there are historic towns that are lost under the sands of time. You can see old brick and stone banks or jailhouses visited only by the ghosts of the past in abandoned towns like Thurmond, West Virginia.

Or head overseas and check out the ruins of the Eilean Donan castle in Loch Duich, Scotland.

You can catch glimpses of abandoned theme parks, castles, asylums, prisons, and much more.
This kind of exploration with Street View requires a bit of sleuthing, as often the exact locations of abandoned places are not always publicly available.
But if you can track down the location, you can call up Google Maps Street View to drive by and catch a glimpse. If you’re lucky, other people have visited the location in person and left actual photography in Google Maps for you to get an even closer look.
6. Find Trailheads Before Going Hiking
One of the most annoying parts of being a hiker is finding the location of many trailheads. The last thing you want to do is waste your entire morning driving around the base of a mountain to find where the trail starts.
In most cases, you’ll find many trailhead locations (where you’ll usually find a parking lot) located right on Google Maps itself.

Other times, especially for less popular trails, you’ll need to switch to Google Maps Street View and explore the area until you find the trail.

Street View lets you “drive around” virtually to find the location long before you waste your time searching for it the morning of your hike.
Once you spot the location, you can click and drag the mouse to look left and right for a good parking location as well. Once you’re satisfied, just select the red marker icon next to the current address and mark the location on Google Maps so you can find it later.
Save the location to your Favorite Places list so you can access it from your phone when you’re on the road.
7. See Augmented Reality Walking Directions With Live View
While it isn’t exactly “Street View”, when you’re walking around a town or city, you can get a similar view on your phone with directions to get where you need to go.
This is called “Live View”, and it’s a real-time augmented reality alternative to Street View.

To access this feature, just open the Google Maps app and select the three lines to open the Menu. Scroll down to Settings and select Navigational Settings. At the bottom of the menu you’ll see Walking Directions. Turn on Detailed Voice Guidance.
Now, when you’re in Google Maps and select walking as your mode of transportation instead of driving, Live View will launch and a voice will give you turn by turn directions on how to walk there.
8. Travel Internationally On a $0 Budget
Have you ever wanted to see the Beaches at Normandy, the Louvre in Paris, or The Great Pyramid of Giza?
Google Maps Street View gives you access to all of these amazing places, and you don’t have to spend thousands of dollars for a plane ticket to get there.

Just follow the same procedure as above. Type the location into Google Maps, and then place the Live View icon as close as you can to that location. Then press and hold the mouse to look and explore in every direction.

You will be amazed at the breathtaking places around the world that you can explore. And even when you think you won’t be able to get close enough to get a good look, you’ll discover that tourists who visited that location before have left some amazing photos tagged to that Google Maps location.
